I’m not sure about the tire pressure. I filled them up last month, fronts 63PSI and rears 75PSI per spec. It was SSSSSSOOOOOOO busy yesterday When we dropped her off that I wouldn’t be surprised that it was simply overlooked/skipped. I plan to fill out any service quality assessment forms that I receive. Regarding the loner car AKA courtesy vehicle, it was a GLA250 4Matic base model which seemed to be a good little SUV. It was powered by a 2.0L 4 cylinder with an eight-speed DSG transmission with a 0-60MPH time of 6.6sec!! Also, it was rated at 24MPG city and 33MPG HWY, not bad for a compact SUV! While we were waiting around for the van, we looked at several SUPS including the Mexican-assembled GLB250, the GLC350 and the GLE 350 as well as the GLS450 which stickered at $95K! It, as well as the $114K GLS63 AMG, were the only ones that were powered by something other than a turbocharged 4 cylinder. The only Mercedes-Benz equipped with a Diesel engine is the Sprinter.
