Question C Service Message

Every morning when starting my 2009 E320 Bluetec, I get a message: "Your C Service is ..... XXX days". How to know what kind of service is expired xxx days?
Is that related with some service like; oil change, transmission fluid, filters, or only a visual checking?
Are there some service/maintenance menu possible to be accessed to know what service is that?
Thanks.

In 2010 MB changed the Service Reminder notifications from many to two, A and B. For a better explanation of your service notification you might consider asking your question in the E-Class (W211) Forum as this is the forum that covers your year of car.

This is what google says is involved in a C Service

"Mercedes-Benz Flexible Service C includes an oil change, replacing wiper blades, checking fluids and running a computer diagnostic to check for any other needed maintenance. Mercedes-Benz recommends Service C every three years or 36,000 miles."

Sounds like this car is new to you, since you have no clue about the service reminder. You have a diesel automobile and I suggest you follow the maintenance intervals with precision on that car or you could end up with a huge bill in short order.

You are right, this is new to me but diesels car are not new to me. I still have those old diesel cars ( 1982 & 1984 300SD)
I still learning about this E320 which I like a lot. They have a lot of computers and it is a very reliable car.
Thanks for your advise.
