E55 Maintenance cost
I know the regular service is free until the warranty expires. But what about after the warranty expires? Does E55 cost a lot to maintain? Do pople usually just get a new one after the warranty expires. I kind of like to keep it longer....
Thanks

the Service A & B after warranty is kinda expensive. I think Service A is the minor one (one wrench in the MFD), which runs about $250 I believe and the Service B is the major one (two wrenches in the MFD) runs about $450.
It varies between dealers, but for the most part, ballpark around those figures.
BTW, MFD is multi-function display
Our ML is outta warranty (well, the service wasn't included to begin with), but it was a few hundred every time

Yeah, the B usually includes everything in A plus alignment and maybe a couple of other items. Then there are the other items like brake fluid flush, coolant renewal, etc. which are not on the A or B intervals. Dealer price will vary and will always be higher than the independent shop.
I have maintenance done independently and repairs done at the dealer. I have found that sometimes the independents are not up to speed on some of the newer cars and can take a while before they figure out the problem.

thats pretty cheap. I am surprised how much ive had to spend on my Lexus GS4...a lot of the services have been in the 400 range..ive had one major one that was like 900.
If that what an e55 maintenance is...bring it!
