Question B service

What is a fair price to pay for a B service minus the 2 cabin filters ?

I don't know what's fair, but mine last month was $435.

Fair is subjective. The dealer I purchased my GLE from wants roughly 650. I drive about an hour to a smaller dealer that is about 150 less. Shop around if you can or find an independent shop.

Thanks for your reply. At $435 are you also talking about not having the 2 cabin filters replaced by the dealer? If so, did you replace them yourself? Perhaps in your area dealers are more realistic with their prices, for a full B service I was quoted $725- $1300+. When asked how can $1300+ be justified for the work being performed, the reply was because of the big star on the front grill. Thanks again.

The OP's question was "minus the 2 cabin filters." Actually, the $435 was for the service only, without parts & supplies. Total including the filters and oil was $706. Sorry for the mis-statement.

You have to know what the dealer is providing in the B service. My dealer charges a significantly higher fee for the B service as opposed to the A service but it does not include the brake fluid change and only the labor to change the cabin air filter and windshield wipers...parts are extra. I have never had a B service done and the car runs fine.

Just had my Service A on 2021 GLE 450 and was $1319.00 including the 13% tax Canadian funds. Be close to $1000.00 US funds. Included Brake fluid change, cabin filters, oil change/filter and a bunch of checking this and that!

Are you off schedule? Usually brake fluid and cabin filters are done every 2 years at the B service.

No, I don’t think so, the car was 2 years old May3/23. Dealer said they change brake fluid on Service B. Anyway, it’s done.
Just thought I’d pass on my costs here in Canada.

Had the B service and the cost was $412 including tax for oil change , brake service and reset of the service reminder. Was in and out in under 2 hours. I thought I was getting a fair deal compared to some other quotes. If you speak with someone who owns a Honda or the like, they feel that I paid over $200 too much. Love the car hate the cost to maintain.

What about it? At the Mercedes dealership where I purchased the car, A service is an oil change and visual inspection. B service is an oil change and labor to replace the wiper blades and the cabin air filter.
