What are the recommended maintenance intervals for my 2008 E350
So I bought my 08 E350 Luxury with the P2 package as my first car at around 94500 miles, and just got my first oil change at 97000mi.
I'm wondering when are the recommended maintenance intervals?
Because the maintenance booklet that came with the owner's manual has recommended maintenance every 13,000 miles, which means my next big one is coming up at 104,000mi.
But I've read online about the A/B service which is every 10,000 miles, and would mean my next big service is coming up at 100,000mi
So I'm just wondering, which is it really or what do most of you recommend?

I recommend following the maintenance from your book. MBs can detect mileage, and adjust when the services are (30 day notice) coming. Every owner is different when it comes to how they do services, but most go above. GL

I wouldn’t let the oil go to 10,000 miles before changing. That’s too long. Yea I know it’s synthetic oil and yea I know that what MB recommends, but it’s too long. Have a look at the oil that comes out at 10,000 miles.
A good interval for oil/filter changes is 5000 miles or 1 year, and it’s easy to keep track of.
Every other year, have the brake fluid checked for moisture. If it’s over the limit, have it flushed. This will vary, depending on where you like and the humidity and rainfall.
