The OP inspired me to get to work on the interior of my 3 mo. old C250. The Griot products are all great, but if you don't want to wait for shipment try this: At my local car shop, O'Reilly's, I purchased ICE Premium Care Interior Cleaner and Protectant (a premium Turtle Wax product) as recommended by the mgr over several other products. Priced a bit higher at $10+. I used it today on the dash, doors and MB Tex seats. I highly recommend it. Leaves a matte, non slick finish that give the UV protection I wanted for the TX sun. Great on the seats- no sliding around. Nice clean aroma and should be easy to find in stores.

Most of the w204 comes with MB tex interior and I also noticed using Meguairs leather cleaner leaves a greasy finish. The moisturizers meant for leather seats are not absorbed by the vinyl (mb tex) interior. It is better to use Meguairs quik interior detailer as these can be used on vinyl without causing any greasy residue.

I think I've been using this for a couple years - Sonus Cockpit Detailer. I bought a concentrate and diluted it so it's very light; it works well as a light cleanser of leather, wood, plastic, and aluminum surfaces.
When I run out (very soon) I'll be trying either 1Z Einszett or Auto Finesse, I think. Not certain but I think there's another I'm forgetting. Either way, I use the towels below as they work well and are non-damaging.
