I recently recieved my '04 MCS. It was sold to me with 1600 miles from a private party. Some friends drove it to Tucson for me from Tennessee bringing it up to 3400 miles. It looks like new and runs great. Its never been serviced, which by mileage is appropriate. Should I bring it in for service based on its age? By the way, the nearest dealer is 120 miles away in Scottsdale.

 

Yes, get it serviced. Oil change is free after one year if you don't have enough miles to activate the service indicator.

 

What he said.

But beware, its not going to be really "serviced". Rather, they are just going to change the oil for free. However, depending upon the date of sale to the original owner, you get a free brake bleed after two years. Brakes should be bled every two years regardless of mileage.

 

Thanks for the info. I'll call and get that service scheduled.
