I took my car to the stealer after getting the "service brake...visit workshop" fault. I thought it might be the SBC since the car is almost 10 years old and I was hoping, if it is a pump fault, to get replaced for free since the car is still within the ten year warranty period.
well........I was right and it turned out that the SBC pump needs to be replaced but the dealer told me that MB Germany agreed to only find 50% of the replacement cost leaving me with £950 bill.
I tried to negotiate with the dealer and asked if they can appeal MB Germany decision. The answer was negative. He told me that he can give me a discount as the frond brake pads and discs needs replacement as well bringing the bill down to £1150 instead of £1450.
Not sure what to do. I don't think the whole car worth more than £4k and it seems stupid to spend such an amount especially that some people on this forum and other forums have managed to get it replaced for free.
