Recalls for the C230

Hey guys. Out of curiosity i called my local MBZ Dealership for any recalls on my vehicle (2005 C230 Sport Sedan). They found one that they have to fix and it seems this is affected for 2005 C230K Sport Sedan with the Sport steering wheel.

http://www.motortrend.com/cars/2005/...lls/index.html

So the Service Dept. Rep told me to come in for the Air bag recall (looks like it may not deploy and causing the SRS light to come on), which my SRS light came on not to long ago and hasn't turned off since. It usually did when turning the car off. Go get this one addressed if you havent for those that get the SRS light to turn on!

Anyways, on to the question... Since I will be going to the dealership tomorrow after work, are there absolutely ANY other recalls i can hit the Techs/Service Advisors with any recalls that i may not know about.

My car is idling not too rough but enough to feel like the car is "purring" like a cat at cold starts. Sometimes it'll take the car 10-15 mins of driving before it goes away or at least is less noticable. It's annoying and it has me worried in the future of this car. I cleaned my TB (found a lil small stream of oil going down). Other than that, it didn't make a difference once cleaned.

Any ideas would help guys for my appointment tomorrow!

Thanks!

Chris
