Does anyone know what service E consist of?

 

Good question, my car just shows 1500 miles E service ...

 

If you go into the FSS it should tell you what it is. Instructions for that are in the sticky above.

 

I don't remember anything about service e except that it cost me 750 bucks. Yikes

 

My neighbor and I both have 2006 E class cars.

We both had E (or F) pop up on the 15 and 30k services.

In both cases, a programming change was incluided in the service. Some 2006 cars apparently show a higher level of service required.

Is yours an 06?

 

what's FSS?

 

ooopz i found out what it is ... "Flexible Service System"

 

They only change oil, filter, all kind of filter and check all the fluide in the car + inspect if anything is bad. All that cost $700 ..... its crazy.
I rather just flush all the fluide than pay for just check up. It will cost about the same......

 

Plus rotate and computer balance all 4 tires, inspected complete car suspension, brake system, hoses, check and adjust spare, perform midtronics load test and diagnostics test o main batt and back up batt. , perform complete short test with star diag. inspecet all modules for current updates and flashes, Inspected all wheater stripping treat and clean all rubber seals, and other small thing Kinda getting tires of people saying all dealers do is change the oil.... i with you guys 700 is to much even for the major service but it is a time consuming service if you are doing it the right way and not skipping steps

 

plus ventalation dust filters and charcoal filters for the climate control

 

I was told by my MB Service Rep that in the USA only Service A and B designations are used along with the associated list of service to perform. Follow the corresponding letters under each A and B. So, when the FSS indicates Service C due, it's the same as a Service A. Service E would also equate to Service A.

 

What my dealer did id modified it alittle and trird to include more things that the factory dosent tell us to do to the A, B servicing so the customer gets more value.

 

What I did for mine I ask the MB service guy what service E consist off: Mostly things that are done accordingly to maint. manual and milege. Only thing which needs to be done on mine is changing the brake fluid (every 2 years) and all filters (fuel, air and combination), which I changed for myself, and inspection on different thing. All this is included in Service 13 or 14, like 14 overlaps 13 plus some additiona work and cost of 300-800 bucks. So I went ahead and called one of the sales guys and ask him should I go and do Service E and his advise was: Go online and find way to reset yor service indicator, and I told him that i know how to do this but i want to reset only thing which needs to be done. So I reset the servise indicator and now sais service C due in 13 000 miles. Only thing I will have to do is change the brake fluid (about 2 hours job).
