  • 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

Service A vs. Service B Intervals: How Do They Differ?

A standout difference between Mercedes-Benz Service A* and Mercedes-Benz Service B* is the length of interval times. Service A is suggested after 1 year or 10,000 miles, whichever comes first. Service B, on the other hand, should come after 2 years or 20,000 miles, whichever occurs first. The maintenance tasks performed at Service A and B are largely the same, but the checklist for Service B is a bit more involved. Around the 2 year or 20,000-mile mark, Service B will include brake fluid replacement and a cabin air filter replacement not seen at Service A. Certain CLA and GLA AMG® models also receive an engine air filter replacement during Service B.
