Yes. And the Mercedes dealer does the service, the will reset the wrenches (otherwise known as FSS). You can expect to see 1 wrench (the cheaper A service -- basically a glorified oil change) in about 10,000 miles (I think).

Heh heh heh...and here I was thinking that the number represented the amount of dollars you are going to spend on whatever part the double wrench light is hooked up to.

I thought the wrenches equated to dollars... I mean how much does the B-service cost 400 something? Its quite a bit of money for what they do IMO.

Yes the double wrenches means B-service.

That B-service should run about $380 before taxes, enviro and disposal fees.

And what exactly do you get for that 380?

A glorified oil change Ha Ha!

No you should get the oil and filter changed-Mobil 1 synthetic.

Engine air filter and air box cleaned.
Fresh air filter.(climate).

Tire rotation, inspect brakes,and all the other good stuff underneath.

Top off fluids, top off tire pressures.
Check battery and charging system.

Replace wiper blades.
Lubricate throttle linkage if applicable.

Lube door seals and latches.

Reset FSS counter on cluster.

That's how most dealerships should do it.

Oh, and if they give a care they will stamp your service booklet, some shops do not have competent service adherence policies and do not drill it into the technicians heads to STAMP THE BOOKS!
