4 workshops in Abu Dhabi name Mercedes-Benz in their own trading name. Service A and Service B are different scopes at different intervals. Ask which one you are being quoted for.
Mercedes-Benz's UAE agency is Gargash. Under warranty, the agency or an approved workshop is usually the right call. Out of warranty, an independent workshop with the right diagnostic software generally does the same job for meaningfully less.
The thing to check is not the badge on the door but whether they have the software for your car. Ask which diagnostic system they use before you book.

6 workshops in Abu Dhabi either name Mercedes-Benz or position themselves around german cars. They cluster like this:
Once the manufacturer warranty has expired, the calculation changes. Gargash will still service the car, and for a warranty claim or a recall that is the right place. For routine servicing and out-of-warranty repair, an independent workshop with the correct software generally does the same work for meaningfully less.
What you give up is the stamp in the agency book, which matters at resale on some marques more than others. On a mainstream car it matters less than the receipts themselves — keep those and the history stands up.
