Prepaid Service Costs
I was just at Open Road Benz in Bridgewater NJ for the 80k B Service. I purchased the 3 yr. Prepaid maintenance covering 80k, 90k, 100k for $2160.
What do you all think of the price?
I never do my own maintenance. One time I took the car ‘14 S550 4Matic to local guy for rear brakes service estimate, pads, rotors, etc. The dude said to me “ Wow, I never worked on one of these before?” I walked out.
Went to the dealer paid $1400…i know its prob on high side given the dealer labor costs. However, I never had any problem with service or maintenance work on last 2 S550’s from OR Bridgewater or MB Manhattan.

All depends on your tolerance for turning a wrench. I did my rear brakes on my 2015 4Matic a few years ago myself and I think it was around 300 in parts for new rotors, pads, HW kit and fluid. Fronts are around 350 I think. These cars are very easy to work on if you have some basic tools and watch a few YouTube videos. I would also find a good indy for your maintenance work. They are typically less money and do just as good of a job.

It becomes a better deal if the service intervals include a transmission service or spark plug service or both.
My transmission and spark plugs were serviced during one of my intervals with prepaid service.
