Hi I have a service looming on my 54 plate 55 CLK the first of my ownership.

Current mileage 35,000 service A required.

The previous full history is all main dealer. Should I only to to mercedes or a local reputable indy?

I will probably get a transmission flush and I have some non-mercedes discs to fit.

It does have mobilo cover which includes rusting from the inside for 30 years. Is it worth maintaining this?

I am wondering if I should get the main work done at the indy and get mercedes to give me my £200 oil change and stamp for rust warranty.

Thanks for the advice.

Mercedes are doing a lower rate for older cars now, albeit only for some things. It might be worth keeping the cover going as the rust will start sooner or later. I have a 2003 car with 68K and it has just started in the arches so I have had it dealt with by Benzworx who are expert at this.
