New Pre-Paid Maintenance Contract
#26
MBWorld Fanatic!
Around here 5 quarts of the Mobil1 Euro Synthetic will run $30 - where are you getting 8 quarts for $30?
you can buy prepaid maintenance anytime before car reaches 80k. The plan specifies the number of services and the amount of time the contract is good for (i.e. mine was 3 services within 4 years) to keep you from skipping services. Whenever you buy it, it covers the next one and so on. No need to buy before first service.

Perhaps the below text from MB site is old and not valid anymore. It was published on Sep. 3 2014 and I cannot find anything newer to explain differently. This page with info is at

It appears that there are two different maintenance options. One for new cars called "Mercedes-Benz Premier Prepaid Maintenance" and the one for cars that don't qualify for the premier maintenance plan is called "Mercedes-Benz Star Prepaid Maintenance".
The premier service must be purchased before the first service is done.
The star maintenance must be purchased before 80 000 miles.
Mercedes-Benz Prepaid Maintenance
Why prepaid maintenance?
It's the smart, convenient way to prepay for all your vehicle's forthcoming scheduled maintenance services. Mercedes-Benz Prepaid Maintenance allows you to "lock in" the costs for "required" services before your first service visit or 10,000 miles, whichever comes first.
Benefits of prepaid maintenance
With prepaid maintenance, all your vehicle's needs are already paid for thousands of miles ahead, and for months in advance.* Prepaid maintenance benefits include:
- Potential increase in residual value if purchased with lease
- Potential increase in resale value (since you're able to prove you're properly maintaining your vehicle according to manufacturer's recommendations)
- The peace of mind of having paid for maintenance in advance
- Mercedes-Benz trained technicians using Genuine Mercedes-Benz Parts
Choose the right payment option for you
By opting for a prepaid maintenance plan when you purchase your Mercedes-Benz, you can build its cost into your monthly vehicle payment, or you can opt to pay the full cost upfront. You can purchase your plan any time before your first service visit or before 10,000 miles - whichever comes first.
There are three different prepaid maintenance plans you can select from, each customized to your preference. You can choose a prepaid maintenance plan that covers your service needs for 2, 3, or 4 years, and up to 40,000 total vehicle miles.
