I'm curious what people are paying for service at their dealers. Since I don't do a lot of my own work on this vehicle, I accept the annual cost of having the dealer look over the vehicle, fix some of the things that have been problems from purchase for free (i.e. AM radio), and keep up with knowledge base and recalls. I haven't used my MB Indie for this vehicle yet. Maybe I will start now.

The only thing that really jumps out at me above is the tranny fluid.
