Yesterday I attended a Tech Session, sponsored by our primary MB dealer in the area (Aristocrat Motors). It was one of the best MBCA-related events of the century, IMO, and apparently they do it every year. They shut down the entire service department--a huge operation--for the entire day, and turn over their SM, SAs, and Techs to us. They put our cars on a lift and do a complete inspection inside and out. They perform a complete MB Service Clinic Inspection Report, which includes many General indicators, Engine compartment checks, Engine component/system condition checks, Undercarriage/drive train checklist, Electrical system and function test, Chassis/body checks, and a Road Test. They also gave us a free Vehicle Master Inquiry (VMI) Report on our cars as well as a free MB pen and heat-resistant coffee mug for our cars. But the real pièce de résistance was a world-class BBQ lunch for everyone, prepared by our SM Jim Schmidt who has won many contests--which is saying something in this KC area! It was an incredible day and I cannot thank Aristocrat Motors and our Section people enough!

This is something other section officers and dealers should look into.

Our dealer also gives us a full 15% discount on all parts and labor, if we are members of MBCA!
