Hi James, and welcome to our merry group.
Daniel has had problems as have I with overcharging from the Montreal dealers.
Many on this forum talk about having their MB's serviced anywhere and keeping excellent records of what was done and MB parts being used.
My complaint with that is that dealer holds the Ace cards 'when and if' you make a warranty claim for something. You need that damn service stamp in your maintenance book. IMHO
I did the full Service B and changed my oil for Mobil 1 which the dealer wasn't going to install. I got their stamp but they charged me $370 with no parts or oil and re-did the checks etc..... A true and complete rip-off.

Have you had the brakes bled yet, and for how much??
What did they quote for the C Service and what will they do?
Derek
