What is the difference between Mercedes-Benz A maintenance and B maintenance?

[DiLyla]

The maintenance items and prices are different. Mercedes-Benz's A maintenance is a basic maintenance, while B maintenance is a comprehensive maintenance. A maintenance only requires changing the engine oil and oil filter, while B maintenance requires replacing the air filter. When performing vehicle maintenance, refer to the maintenance manual and the specific usage of the vehicle. Mercedes-Benz maintenance categories: 1. A maintenance: engine oil, oil filter, lubrication maintenance, windshield washer fluid top-up, full vehicle fluid inspection, computer diagnostics, drainage check, tire tightening, tire pressure (5 tires), chassis inspection (including suspension, brake discs, pads, and all chassis components), interior inspection (horn, headlight washer, seat belts, interior lights, cigarette lighter, and all other functions), battery test, reset maintenance and tire pressure warning lights. 2. B maintenance: includes air filter replacement, cabin air filter replacement, air conditioning disinfection, sunroof lubrication, intake manifold and throttle body cleaning without disassembly, plus all A maintenance items. 3. C maintenance: essentially the same as A maintenance, as Mercedes-Benz alternates between A and B maintenance. 4. Extended maintenance: includes all B maintenance items plus full vehicle fluid replacement, fuel filter replacement, pulley set replacement, spark plug replacement, carbon deposit cleaning, etc. 5. Mercedes-Benz maintenance intervals: The manufacturer has clear regulations for the regular maintenance intervals of Mercedes-Benz vehicles. The maintenance interval is every 10,000 kilometers, alternating between A and B maintenance. A maintenance is performed at 10,000, 30,000, 50,000, and 70,000 kilometers, while B maintenance is performed at 20,000, 40,000, 60,000, and 80,000 kilometers. However, Mercedes-Benz also has additional regulations for specific components: brake fluid should be replaced every two years, sunroof tracks and sliders should be serviced every two years, transmission fluid and spark plugs should be replaced every four years or 60,000 kilometers, fuel filter should be replaced every six years or 80,000 kilometers, and engine coolant should be replaced every ten years or 200,000 kilometers.
