Mercedes Sales, Servie and Repairs

Mercedes

Generally, you can expect to drive your Mercedes approximately 16,000 km between services - and as many as 32,000 km - depending on which model you drive, how you drive it and the severity of your driving conditions.

Maximum Mercedes service intervals may be limited by time duration, depending on how you drive. We classify required Mercedes Service as A-Service (minor), B-Service (major) and C-Service (major).

All scheduled Mercedes service is necessary to maintain your vehicle in optimal operating condition and to avoid damage to your vehicle not covered by the warranty. We strongly recommend you take your Mercedes to our shop for all service work. We service all of Melbourne and surrounding suburbs.
