Oil change
How much should an oil change cost? I am trading my car in soon and only put 3000 miles on my car in the last year. I don't see the need for a complete service C, thus I thought an oil change would be enough.

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.
It's a glorified oil change...If you had anything wrong, it would throw a code. You still need to check to be sure fluids are correct.
buy some synthetic oil, get an oem filter and change it yourself....IMHO

If you are trading the car there is no point putting changing the oil. You will take enough of a beating on the trade and at just 3k since the last change it is pointless.

I am having my third oil change and I do not even have the first 12,000. Had an A then a B now tomorrow another A. I would never let the dealer put the crappy MB wiper blades on the car. When I bring in tomorrow I will mention I do not want there wiper blades.

It won't get you a penny more on trade in, which is going to be rough on you.
