Some MB dealers along with all others are "self serving" Just look at my boat service bills, fresh water use only, 3 months a year use. I just think that the "mechanics" have a magical way of "down" servicing the cars that pass through their shops. Thus this possibly leads to more service. At least that is my experience.
Experience show most "mechanics" have to be watched while at work, regardless you know what they are doing there, or not - this way they won't try to deceive you.

Side note: when they see a customer with a luxury car, be it Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Maserati or whatever else, they will think he/she is the kind of person who doesn't soil his/her hands, and therefore is a complete moron regarding the repairs. A moron with a lot of money is a far too attractive target to miss

Solution: study the manuals - even if you don't DIY, at least you will know whom to swear at when it breaks down
