What is an A Service?
The Mercedes A Service is the lighter, first-year service: engine oil & filter, fluid checks, brake inspection and a reset of the service indicator. Usually due around 12 months / 15,000km.
What is a B Service?
The B Service is the larger, second-year service. It adds a cabin/dust filter, more thorough inspection and additional fluid checks. Due around 24 months / 25,000-30,000km.
A, B, A, B…
Mercedes alternates A and B services year on year. Your car’s ASSYST display tells you which is due and when.
Specialist, not dealer prices
We’re European specialists – genuine-quality parts and Mercedes-correct procedures at a fraction of dealer pricing. Here an ASSYST Service A is from $500 incl. GST. A Service B covers more — brake fluid, cabin filter and the extra checks that fall due at that interval — so we quote it once we have read your car’s service indicator and seen what is actually due, and the price is fixed in writing before we start.
