What is the year of your automobile, its mileage, and how long do you want to keep it?

I wonder since an A180 is considered low in status among Mercedes-Benz vehicles. Consider transitioning from using the services of a Mercedes-Benz dealership to an independent mechanic, based on the age and mileage of your vehicle. This service history is unlikely to significantly affect the future resale value.

I am not complaining. Two dealers informed me that they do the identical inspection on A and B with no discernible change, which was also confirmed by an engineer. They said that the only difference is that the B service includes more work, which incurs an additional charge. I am curious about the distinction between the two, if any. Were the vendors engaging in idle conversation? Official MB websites state that service B includes more checks than service A, but they told me that the same tests are performed for every service.

Two dealers and a technician informed me that they do the same number of checks during every service without distinguishing between A or B, and then determine the necessary actions based on the findings. It seems that air
My car is a 2018 model with 13,000 miles. I am aware that the A class is considered the entry-level model in the Mercedes-Benz lineup. I do not have any immediate plans to sell it and intend to keep it for at least the next 5 years. However, I anticipate that its value will depreciate significantly over this period, so I may choose to keep it as a family car in the future. The reason I chose the Mercedes-Benz service is that the original dealers provided me with a 4-year guarantee contingent on servicing at a Mercedes-Benz dealership. However, I am now considering that with such little mileage over 4 years, it is unlikely that anything would malfunction.

Has, Many luxury vehicles, including MB's, may experience issues within four years of being manufactured, even at the high end of the market. There are reports of problems with relatively new MB's on this forum.

The choice to contribute financially to maintain the MB warranty is solely yours. What kind of engine is in the 5-year-old automobile with extremely low mileage? Petrol? Automatic gearbox?

A few months back, a work colleague had an engine malfunction and timing belt failure on his 2-year-old BMW X6 xDrive M Sport. Fortunately, the vehicle was still under warranty, otherwise the repair would have been quite costly. After hearing similar incidents from others, I opted for servicing as a 4-year "peace of mind" package. It covers everything except wear and tear.

I have a 1.6 litre petrol automatic car. Are there any important details I should be aware of? This is my first automobile, apart from leasing or renting several cars in the past, and my first Mercedes-Benz. The car has strong road grip, decent noise isolation, and superior suspension compared to comparable hatchbacks like Ford Fiesta/Focus and Lexus CT200h. In comparison to BMW 1 series, the A class offers a more pleasurable ride, especially for highway driving.
