Mercedes service schedule

Service A and Service B

• Service A - the lighter of the two: engine oil and oil filter, fluid top-ups, tyre and brake checks and a general inspection.
• Service B - the more comprehensive service: everything in an A service plus additional filters and a longer inspection list, and typically the point at which longer-interval items are addressed.
• Additional work indicators - the display may add items such as brake fluid or, on some models, spark plugs and further filters on top of the A or B service.

Content varies by engine, model and year. Older models use different service designations again - check the handbook for your car.

How ASSYST decides

ASSYST monitors mileage, time and operating conditions and shortens the interval for harder use - heavy towing, short journeys or high-load driving. The car displays the days or miles remaining and which service is next.

Service plans and records

Mercedes-Benz service plans are agreements sold by the manufacturer and its dealers. Serviced247 does not sell, administer or hold data on them. If you have a plan, its terms decide where the car must be serviced and what is covered - read the agreement before booking elsewhere.

Items that sit outside a routine service

• Brake fluid - a time-based change on most schedules
• Coolant and, where fitted, gearbox or DSG oil
• Cambelt, where the engine has one
• Tyres, brake pads and discs - replaced on condition, not on schedule
• Air-conditioning service and regas

Always check the schedule for your exact engine and model year. The definitive source is the handbook, the service indicator and the manufacturer's own schedule - not a generic tier name.
