I have a C-240 4 matic (2005) which will go out of warranty in 7 weeks.
The car seems to run fine (I dont have any complaints).Before it goes out of warranty, what should i check to make sure none of the warranty work needs to be done?
I dont know technical aspects of the car as much as ppl know on this forum.So i will appreciate any advise.
Well sometimes when i accelerate i feel a little bit(not much) of hesitation not that it cause any problem.
Just want to make sure if its a problem or its a safety mechanism to ensure safe acceleration?
All responses and advises regarding what to check before the car goes out of warranty will be highly appreciated.

Thanks for your response.
Do they usually charge for looking at it if there is nothing wrong?

If something is wrong and covered under warranty they dont charge at all right?

Dont want any surprises that is the reason i am asking

Thanks for all the responses.I appreciate it
I called to get an appointment and mentioned the problem that the car accelerate with hesitation (sometimes)as i discussed previously.
The mechanic who called me to give an appointment asked what kind of fuel do i use i said Shell V-power.He said that they put some winter stuff in it that might be causing the hesitation and advised me to switch to regular gas and also advised me to buy a fuel injector cleaner and put it in gas tank.
He also gave me an appointment so that he can run the codes.
What do you ppl think about switching to regular gas instead of premium?

Thanks for all the responses
Now i am a little worried they might be trying to play games.He even mentioned that he had a car C-class i assume and he(MB guy) always used regular gas in it and had 75000 miles on it and then sold it.I know in the manual it mentions premium.

Buellwinkle i dont know anything about cars so please help me.Please explain me how to do the connector thing so that they can check the car throughly (as you mentioned)
