2025 Mercedes-Benz GLC Service Schedule Guide
May 28 2025,
Your 2025 Mercedes-Benz GLC needs regular care to run properly. Mercedes-Benz uses a simple A and B service schedule that covers all the important parts of your vehicle.
The service schedule switches between A and B appointments. This system makes sure your GLC gets the right maintenance at the right time. You'll know exactly what to expect at each visit.
Service A Schedule
Service A happens first at 20,000 kilometres or one year. After that, you need Service A every 40,000 kilometres or two years.
What Service A includes:
- Oil and filter change with Mercedes-Benz oil
- AdBlue fluid top-up (diesel models only)
- New remote key battery
- New cabin air filter
- Check all lights and horn
- Check fluid levels
- Inspect brake parts
- Check tire condition and air pressure
- Reset service reminder
Service A takes care of the basic maintenance your GLC needs to run well. The oil change uses the exact type your engine was designed for. The cabin filter keeps the air inside your car clean. Tire checks help prevent flat tires and make your tires last longer.
Service B Schedule
Service B starts at 40,000 kilometres or one year after your last service. Then it switches with Service A every 40,000 kilometres or two years.
What Service B includes:
- Everything from Service A, plus:
- Tire rotation
- New combination filter
- Check suspension and steering parts
- Look for fluid leaks
- Test seat belts and buckles
- Check drive belt condition
- Check tire sealant expiry date
- Adjust headlight aim
Service B goes deeper than Service A. The technician looks at parts that wear out slowly over time. Tire rotation helps all four tires wear evenly. The suspension check finds problems before they get expensive.
Plug-In Hybrid Service Needs
The GLC 350e has electric parts that need special attention. The battery system, charging port, and electric motor get checked during both A and B services.
Your hybrid GLC follows the same schedule as regular models. But the technician uses special tools to check the electric systems. They test the battery condition, cooling system, and charging equipment.
Mercedes-Benz technicians get training on hybrid systems. They know how to work safely with high-voltage parts. This training keeps you and your car safe during service.
Service Costs and Planning
You can buy prepaid maintenance plans that save up to 20% compared to paying for each service. These plans work for people who drive a lot or a little. You can use them if you buy or lease your GLC.
Prepaid plans help you budget for maintenance. You know what your service will cost before you need it. The plans cover genuine Mercedes-Benz parts and fluids.
Even if you don't drive much, you still need service every year. Car parts age over time, not just from use. Regular service prevents bigger problems later.
Why Follow the Schedule
Your GLC has complex systems that work together. Skipping service can cause expensive repairs. Regular maintenance keeps your warranty valid and your car reliable.
Mercedes-Benz parts are made specifically for your GLC. Generic parts might fit, but they won't work as well. Genuine parts come with a two-year warranty.
The technicians use special diagnostic computers that talk to your car's systems. These tools find problems that regular mechanics might miss. Early detection saves money and prevents breakdowns.
Seasonal Maintenance
Your GLC needs different care in winter and summer. Tire changes, battery tests, and fluid checks change with the seasons.
In winter, your battery works harder to start the engine. Cold weather thickens fluids and puts stress on parts. Summer heat can damage rubber parts and cause fluids to evaporate.
The service schedule covers year-round needs. But you might need extra checks if you live somewhere with extreme weather.
Booking Your Service
You can book service appointments online through the Mercedes-Benz system. This lets you pick a time that works for you. You can also see what services your car needs.
The service advisor will explain what work needs to be done before starting. They'll show you any worn parts and explain why they need replacement. You approve all work before it starts.
Most services take a few hours. You can wait at the dealership or arrange for a loaner car. We also offer shuttle service to help you get to work.
