Service interval nearly exceeded.

I have booked my C270 in for a B service, having fully expected to be able to use it very little and so to get to the service with at least 100 miles in hand.

However, our other car cut-out on the motorway the other day, and had to be recovered by the AA, leading to my having had to use the C for a couple of longish journeys more than anticipated.

Its currently saying "Service Due Now!" on ASSYST and, I have only one 70 mile return trip left to do before (ie 35 x 2), hopefully, other car comes back, and I can rest it till the service.

How long does it stay on "Service Due Now"? Is it a 100-mile (ish) increment like the countdown? If so, I will either be very close or 100 miles over. Will this invalidate the MOBILO, or do they give you a bit of leeway?

They will mark it down on the service book that it was X miles over due. Unless you are many 000's over there should be no issue. They will empty your wallet anyway...

Thanks

I'm expecting the wallet emptying - although the service cost went down from the initial estimate when I told them my mileage......

All being well, it will be 100 miles over at most.

Anyone got any ideas how long it stays on "Service Due Now" - 100 miles or so?

It goes to "service over due" and states how many miles if I remember correctly. First time I had it serviced I nearly did 1,000 extra as I was working away.
