20000 Mile Service
Hi all!
New to the G-Class world and really love the truck. Picked up a W463 with 19K miles and approaching 20K and wanted to check in with everyone on the 20K mile service. Has anyone done the work themselves? Reading a few forums, I have seen some pictures of the swivel grease and diff oil checks and noticed this is part of the service. Together with this Replace brake fluid is also recommended.
Curious as toward what you guys paid for service at the dealer.

Dealer for service?! Surely you jest! Do you have an Indy shop near by that works on German vehicles? I use the dealer for warranty only; however, I have a local Mercedes-only Indy shop so I am spoiled.
