Service A cost Info.
F.Y.I:
My 08 R350 just displayed "service A dues in 26 days". It has only 4300 miles on it (bought in 5/08). My guess that it goes by yearly interval.
I called my SA and he told me just do the oil change for $135.00 instead of full service A for $250.00 because my R has little mileages on it.
Also, he told me that MB USA has downgrade the oil change interval from 13,000 miles to 10,000 miles.

This is a pretty easy DIY if you're up for it.

oil change cost update
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OK, I just had oil change / oil filter and reset the service A at the dealer this morning.
Here is the list:
1 oil filter = $24.73
9 Qts of oil = $62.55
Oil disposal = $ 2.00
Labor = $ 30.00
Tax = $ 7.16
Total = $126.44
Not bad for $30.00 labor.
Car wash, coffee and breakfast = No charge
Lubricate all doors moldings for rattles = No charge
Loose or broken plastic tabs in the back of power lift (back order) = No chagre (My fault from previous attemp to remove)
