Difference between A and B on FSS
Not that it is important or anything, but now that I have had 2 FSS visits that I have had to pay for (dealer paid for the first 50K miles, I just hit 70K miles), I have been getting different prices from three dealers on A service and B service, but I don't see much of a difference in the work to be performed (between A and B).
For example one dealer might charge 175.00 for A service and 349.00 for B service, but another dealer charges 399.00 for A service and 249.00 for B service.
Anyone else notice this?

Service B would be a little more, $249 sounds about right as well. Service B does a little more involved work, changing out filters, rotate the tires if necesary, oil change, oil filter, etc.
We're still on warranty for services on the S till next summer, July '05 and/or another ~18k miles...so I haven't seen the bill for service A or B to see how much. On the ML, my independent dealer charges $100 for service A. Not sure about B yet.
