How much does it cost to service a Mercedes-Benz? Mercedes Benz Maintenance Service

I’m taking my 2015 Mercedes-Benz ML400 4Matic (a one-year model) SUV for service (maintenance) at the Mercedes Benz of Draper dealership. The ML 400 SUV has a twin-turbo, 3.0-liter V-6 engine that produces 329 hp and 354 lb-ft of torque. The engine sends power to all four wheels via Mercedes' seven-speed automatic transmission and 4Matic permanent all-wheel-drive system. I absolutely love this SUV as a daily driver because it’s extremely reliable, robust and powerful. Despite being a 5,098-pound SUV, it does 0 to 60 mph in 5.9 seconds and through the quarter mile in 14.4 seconds at 96.1 mph.

Let me know if you want to see a full in-depth review of this magnificent Mercedes-Benz SUV.

It may surprise many that service doesn’t cost much for the ML400. The dealership performed “A Service” which cost $212. And that not a lot considering that I perform service once a year or every 10,000 miles.

What’s the Mercedes-Benz Service A Checklist?
Mercedes-Benz Service A* is performed after one year or 10,000 miles, whichever comes first. Although the services performed can vary depending on the model year, Service A includes the following services:

Synthetic Motor Oil Replacement
Oil Filter Replacement
All fluid level checks and corrections are dependent on factory-recommended service intervals for your vehicle’s year and model
Tire inflation check and correction
Brake component inspection
Reset maintenance counter

I hope that this video provided proof and insights into what goes behind a basic Mercedes-Benz service.
