Mercedes
Mercedes-Benz passenger cars produced before 1997 were on scheduled services between 6,000 and 9,000 miles. As of 1997 new vehicles were fitted with the active service system known as ASSYST which has been developed up to the current day On vehicles fitted with the ASSYST system the basic service is carried out and additional items such as spark plugs, fuel filter and air filters are changed depending on age or mileage. When these additional items are replaced they are sold separately
SERVICE ASSYST 1997-2003
Many Mercedes Benz passenger cars are equipped with Service ASSYST this is a variable service schedule alternating from A to B Service. A being a small routine service and B being a larger routine service. A service indicator appears on the display approximately one month or 600 miles before a service is due. Services are normally due between 9,000 and 18,500 miles or between 12-24 months depending on driving style
SERVICE ASSYST PLUS 2003-2007
The majority of models produced between 2003 & 2007 are equipped with Service ASSYST Plus. This is also a variable service schedule alternating between A to H service with the letters indicating how much time and work will be expected to be conducted. A indicates a routine service and H would indicate a more in depth service
SERVICE ASSYST FIXED INTERVALS 2007 ONWARDS
Many model produced from 2007 have fixed service intervals. Services alternate front A to B and occur every 15,500 miles or after one year whichever comes sooner
These fixed service intervals make it easier for you to plan your service around your schedule, making it less likely for you to miss a service

Facts
In October 2003 the European Parliament introduced new legislation to ensure a free market in the sale and servicing of motor vehicles
This means
- Any independent operator has equal access to Mercedes-Benz training diagnostic hardwear, softwear and tools
- Any Service carried out in accordance with the manufacturers schedule will maintain the new car warranty
- You can be sure when servicing with Lodge Services you get technical expertise at a great value for money price
(Although the manufacturer cannot stipulate where your car gets serviced it can keep the warranty work within the Mercedes Dealer network - therefore we are unable to do warranty work)
