I had my resonators removed, so the cold start was long and loud and afterwards the idling is pretty obnoxious too.
But these few days it's just been a short "Vroom..." and then idles pretty calm.
Still considering if I should let Mercedes have a look, cuz the car drives perfectly fine and loud
I just hope if i take it to Mercedes for a look at, they don't blame it on the resonator delete lol. The M.benz of Vancouver Richmond are *****es!

Also, keep in mind how long the car sat prior to being turned on.
80*F should be the magic number.

Interesting...I hadn't noticed. Hopefully, I'll finally get my car back tomorrow and I'll keep an eye out. One thing I wish it would do is keep the dash display the same. I'd rather have it default to the AMG/temp screen than any of the others.

So today's weather is much warmer than the past 3 days, hella sunny today.. But to my surprise the cold start is loud again I know its normal.. when it wakes up my gf on the upper floor on the other side of the house 
It's weird.. guess my car just decide to be lazy for the past 3 days? I know time isn't an issue because i get home at 7 pm everyday and let it sit until 8 am the next morning.
I'll have to see tomorrow..

OP Since you just got an oil change may be they put too much in. Happened to me. This would have an impact on that start up growl.
