Yearly service

[BuddhaDada13]

Anyone do their yearly service yet? Since it's been over a year since the first DE Air's have been out, some may have been serviced? My car was in for service of a scratched B pillar and they told me I was due for a yearly service even though, I have had my car only since late March. It seems that my vehicle met the mileage requirement for a yearly service. They are recommending service at one year or 12K miles.

The cost for the service? $301.85.

What does it include?
Replace the 6 batteries for the sun visors
Replace the 3 air cabin filters
Replace the windshield wiper blades
Tire rotation

As part of the service, they discovered the left rear door shield was gashed so they repaired it for free.

They also acted on some action times. In addition to the tow eye bracket fix, they also inspected the charge port door emergency release, did a wiper harness inspection, did a rear drive control unit (DCU) orientation update and an intermediate shaft replacement.

Seems like a reasonable price given what I used to spend at the Mercedes dealer for just an oil change.

The manual advises one year or 12k miles, whichever comes first. So that checks out.

That’s awesome. I’m used to paying German car service prices, where an oil change alone costs $300+.

Wow, that's Mercedes prices for service! 😇

Yeah. First oil change on my wife's Mercedes was $289! Air filter is $140. Our Toyotas were cheaper to maintain.

These are the kinds of figures I use when I try to convince my wife that buying a GT was a “value play”. So far it’s not working.

The air filters are the biggest rip
Off’s on all cars. They all put them where it is not an easy Do-It-Yourself item 😂
