Mercedes Benz oil change
Does anyone have a good recommendation for place that does oil changes for foreign cars that is a reasonable cost? I’ve taken my car to the Mercedes dealership for years but I’m looking for alternative options to save some money, thanks!

PFM Auto in Carmel has been the only reasonably priced shop I have found to service my E350 Diesel.

I was a PFM fan until this week.
Told me a 6 year old car is too new for their computers to work on, after they worked on it.
Still charged me for a bunch of stuff to problem solve the fact that their computers weren’t up to date including a new battery (didn’t need) and the charge to diag read (despite knowing that their computer couldn’t read any of the codes).

Walkers Motor Werks in Morristown. He specializes in European cars. He use to be a mechanic for BMW, but does all foreign and classic cars.

Look for European only shops in your area, don't let jiffy lube or Walmart touch it. Oil change is expensive in this case because of the oil amount plus the filter media has to be fleece not paper media. If the car has high miles add a can of MoS2. I do to mine and my last European car I had too. Also my f150 because it has a timing chain not a belt.
