4 year 40k miles Checkup Question
I just bought a 2011 ML350. Amazing car. However, the 4 year 40k miles checkup is coming up. The Mercedes dealership said it is gonna cost ~$1200.
I was wondering if that's worth it or are there reputable alternative shops around the Maryland/Virginia area that can do it for a million times cheaper?
Thanks guys/gals.

Yea you are probably right. I need to stop being cheap about these important checkups.
The dealership I went to offered a 4 year + 5 year + 6 year checkup for $1500 ($1200+ for just the 4 year).
Has anyone gotten this? Is it worth it?

If you wanted a cheap car....you should have bought a cheap car. 
Don't cut corners on services or parts quality. You'll pay for it in unscheduled repairs and lower resale value. Having your maintenance book consecutively stamped by a genuine Mercedes dealership adds significant value to the car.
A 4 year service is these major points:
Engine Oil/filter
Transmission oil/filter
Fuel filter
Air filters
Replace brake fluid
Cabin filter
Check brakes
Check for leaks and chassis damage
Wiper blades
Tire rotation
