I am taking my 05 C230SC to the dealer. I have the extended warranty and am already at 84k miles. I will be having them do the PCV and lower hose recall. I will also have them replace the faulty leaky cam position sensors and harness if a reasonable price.

I will also have them check:
Valeo Radiator
o2 sensor
Coil Packs
Ball Joints
Thrust Bearings.


What else should I have them check? I'd like o get as much out of this warranty as possible before I hit that 100k mile mark.

Thanks for any insight!!

See if this recall has been checked.
