Has anyone else heard this? Also, what is involved with the Schedule C Service? I have search without much luck.

Thanks!
run forrest, ruuuun. this dealership is trying to sell you a new car. $4500 for a service? that has to be the most expensive service in the world. the dealer would sell your car for at least $16k, and he would give you $7k to trade? what a f***ing asshole. trade in for a 2002 e320 is more like $11-12k. the dealers are selling 2002 e320;s for $16-17k.
no need to change the timing chain on your car, it doesn't go bad. i wouldn't take the car to that dealer anymore since your warranty is expiring. i would just change the transmission fluid/filter/pan gasket if it has never been done before and continue to change the oil for the suggested interval, replace coolant every 2 years and the brake fluid everytime i change the brake pads. and also change the spark plugs sometime in the next year, and reset the fss yourself.
