QUOTE(kkk8787 @ Jan 30 2022, 06:21 PM) Hi there, I own a Mercedes C Class 2017 W205 9GTronic. 4 years warranty expired . So planning to service outside. Would like to ask, where do I get a proper service schedule for my car. I mean the normal service is every 1 year and 12000km , to change engine oil. However, for other things like brake fluid, transmission fluid, intake air filter, air cond filter I do not have the recommended schedule. Asking service center is not really helpful if you are servicing outside. Anywhere to find a complete schedule , the best is exact model and maybe for malaysian car? Also will appreciate if can guide me on where to buy mercedes parts outside, basically mercedes stockist at reasonable price and trustable. and outisde workshops which can change for you. Not sure if this is the right place to post, do guide me if its not the right place There are plenty of Merc parts store shop, they can suggest the part replacement schedule vs your current mileage and price are indeed cheaper than SC. For basic item like atf, engine oil, spark plug, brake fluid, obviously there are there in the manual.

QUOTE(cfyong2020 @ Jul 8 2023, 05:50 PM) If you want the 4 years warranty from them you have no choice have to pay premium. Once the warranty over go outside conti car specialist their price will be atleast 50% cheaper or even more. For the Atf change, including parts, outside shop is affordable price. Somemore can do flushing as well using those machines. Rm3.8k is too many mark up

QUOTE(vintys23 @ Oct 26 2023, 09:18 AM) I am planning to move from a Japanese car to a recond C180 AMG Line Japan spec (CBU), year 2018. Mileage at 15k km. Priced at 170k. Reason being, I wanna try out and experience my first conti car. Enjoy it for maybe 2-3 years before getting on to a next one. What do you guys think? Would appreciate some feedback  For best bang for money on maintenance, can buy the parts outside and bring to Merz specialist workshop outside for installation. EO can buy from Shopee Mall following the car oil viscosity. If the car recommend 0w20, 0w30, follow. Old foreman love to advise car owner to changing it to 5w40 and 5w50 which might make the car feeling laggy and consume more fuel This post has been edited by ayamxxx: Oct 26 2023, 09:54 AM
