Robinson Automotive ( a CAA / APA approved shop ) at Dixie & the 401 specializes in luxury vehicles ( see link below ) - they service a TON of MB's.

And over 1/2 of the MB's they service are still under warranty.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED !

As for Mike.

I have also used mobilembservice.ca (straightforward Service A for a GLK350), mostly for convenience. Went fine.

Still, Benz Service A is a huge cash grab, like most companies oil changes. If only we could get 229.51 oils in Canada at a reasonable price, the rest is really just topping up fluids (usually just windshield washer fluid!), greasing some hinges (whatever), and the oil filter (can get OEM ones easy enough). For those of us with winter tires, the tire rotation part is moot.

$300 for ~8 litres of Mobil 1 and a bottle of windshield washer fluid is a bit steep.
