CL500 Engine Manegement Light
As said my mate bought a 500 last week and now the engine light is on, 53k on the clock?????
Would this be cause a service is needed or what else could it be????
It also says service A overdue by 236 days....
This guy bought it on a whim... fool....

The Service A notification is for maintenance. The car will need an "A" service which consists of an oil change and a bunch of vehicle checks. Do a search on "FSS" or "Service A" for details.

Engien Light - I would NOT say O2 sensor straight away - in fact it could be ignition HT leads, ignition coil packs or MAF sensor - then I would investigate o2 sensor.
Do in order above due to least cost to most cost:
ignition HT leads £20 each
ignition coil packs £100 each
MAP sensor (MB part) £250 (OEM) £100
I have spare ignition coil packs for £40 each if that helps but I'm in the UK. All coil packs are the same part number on the 500 model.
I also have a boxed new MAF sensor (OEM) you can have for £50.
