70k miles service

I have a 95 s420 with 70k miles

it has a really bad mileage, on average 12 mpg with light foot,

I guess this is a sign that it needs a lot of servicing done

anybody can estimate how much the regular service at 70 000 miles would cost?

thanks

RE: 70k miles service

The most expensive service is the 60K,is that service done on your car?(Should be around $900),the 70K is just an regular service probably around (200-300).
I don't think that service will help you solving your problem with the fuel consumption.
I have the same car S420, 95 and go est. 400 Miles till the reserve light comes on and that is in town.

I do 400 miles per tank as well but with an S320. Thats real good for a V8!.

RE: 70k miles service

Wait a minute. I easily get 600 miles to a tank on my S420. I average 26-28 mpg!!!
Correction - that is on the highway. 400 miles in town sounds about right.
