Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get my Mercedes serviced anywhere?

Yes! You have the freedom to choose where you service your Mercedes Benz, and as an independent Mercedes mechanic, Cox Auto offers a genuine alternative, providing expert care, high-quality parts, and premium workmanship, all with a local touch and the flexibility to offer the best prices.

How often should I service my Mercedes?

The recommended servicing interval for most makes and models, including Mercedes Benz, is approximately every 15,000 kilometres, or annually. However, it’s essential to consider your specific Mercedes Benz model and individual driving habits, as these factors can influence the ideal service schedule.

Regular servicing plays a pivotal role in preserving your car’s performance and longevity, regardless of your driving conditions. We recommend checking the manufacturer recommendations in your vehicle’s service manual.

How much is a Mercedes service in Australia?

The cost of servicing your Mercedes can vary depending on the type of work required. Whether you’re booking in for a routine logbook service, brake repairs, tyre replacements, or more complex diagnostics, each job comes with its own pricing structure. Your Mercedes model and its specific servicing needs will also influence the final cost.

For a detailed, accurate quote tailored to your vehicle, get in touch with our team. We’ll provide a transparent breakdown of costs upfront—no hidden fees, no confusing packages, just clear information so you can make informed decisions about your Mercedes car servicing in Melbourne.

How long does a Mercedes service take in Australia?

The time it takes to service your Mercedes depends on the nature of the work involved. For example, a routine logbook service may take between 2 to 4 hours, while a basic maintenance check can often be completed within 1 to 2 hours.

When you book your Mercedes in for a service, we’ll provide a time estimate based on your specific needs. If any unexpected delays arise or further car repairs are needed, we’ll keep you updated every step of the way so you can plan your day with confidence.
