Maximizing Your Mercedes: A Comprehensive Maintenance Guide

Black Mercedes-Benz C-Class driving on a road.
Owning a Mercedes-Benz is a privilege that comes with the responsibility of keeping your vehicle in optimal condition. Regular maintenance ensures that your luxury ride continues to deliver the performance, comfort, and style you expect. In this maintenance guide, we'll break down the essential details of your Mercedes-Benz service schedule, making it easier than ever to keep your car running smoothly.

Understanding Your Maintenance Categories

When it comes to maintaining your Mercedes, there are two primary service categories: A-Service and B-Service.

A-Service (Minor Maintenance): This service covers the basics and is usually required around every 20,000 km or 1 year after your major service. Your dashboard indicators will keep you informed, but your service book will also specify A-Service as minor maintenance. Components addressed in A-Service include:

  • Synthetic Motor Oil Replacement
  • Oil Filter Replacement
  • Comprehensive Fluid Level Checks and Corrections
  • Thorough Inspection and Feedback
  • Resetting of Maintenance Indicator

B-Service (Major Maintenance): Occurring approximately 1 year after your A-Service (Minor) or after covering about 20,000 km, the B-Service tackles more extensive maintenance tasks. Just like with A-Service, your dashboard indicators will guide you. B-Service includes:

  • Synthetic Motor Oil Replacement
  • Oil Filter Replacement
  • Air Filter Replacement (as applicable)
  • Cabin/Pollen Filter Replacement
  • Spark Plug Replacement (as applicable)
  • Comprehensive Fluid Level Checks and Corrections
  • Thorough Inspection and Feedback
  • Resetting of Maintenance Indicator

Staying Informed

Newer Mercedes models have shifted away from traditional interval books, storing your service information in the Mercedes database. If you complete your service intervals at the dealership, this digital record will ensure accurate tracking. However, your car’s dashboard remains your trusty reminder for upcoming services.
