Re: 2015 GLA45 Initial Service
Some notes from my call w/ Warwick Benz:
- Cat was $1208.50 which is about $150 higher than New London Benz so I guess I'll plan on getting that in New London
- TPMS PN is 000-905-0030 - they don't show any but suggested I check New London stock to see if they have one
- Transmission fluid 236.21 5 liter is 001-989-85-03-14, which at $108 makes it about $24 a qt which is great compared to ~$35
- Spare tire - he thought any e-class and/or older s-class spare would likely fit.

OEM is most likely HUF as they've been supplying for years including my vehicles.
RockAuto may also sell the HUF.

Re: 2015 GLA45 Initial Service
Looks like it's the same as my E63. I have two new ones in my garage for my front wheels someday.
I bought HUF from TPMS.com.

Re: 2015 GLA45 Initial Service
I would prefer OEM. Rationale is the A89 update of the 722.9 used a branded and superior filter media and I am not sure the aftermarket has properly duplicated this. The 724 seems like it is needy for fluid service so keeping everything OEM seems prudent.
It's one of those cases where the research to verify aftermarket quality is not worth the time comparing to paying for OEM. Even for 30k intervals.

Re: 2015 GLA45 Initial Service
OK. Looks like it's "only" about $90 more for OEM fluid and filters. Ordered from Warwick. Order 1367. Since I ordered the 5 Liter bottle (+1 add'l liter) I'm not sure if they'll have it in stock.
Re: 2015 GLA45 Initial Service
Actually shows everything as in-stock. Maybe I can get today. Ordering air filter and trans dip stick from FCP Euro.
Re: 2015 GLA45 Initial Service
Has to say in stock in store for it to actually be on their shelf. But even if it's not in store it will be very quickly.
