I have a 99 as well and have experience some of these problems. I don't have a lot of interior noise though. I mean if i have the windows down the side mirrors whistle a little but with normal driving the only noises are the little squeaks of the drivers seat and arm rest. Though I have noticed a strange sound that almost sounds like a a/c register in a house, but havent traced it yet.
Mine never had a 1-touch sunroof, but I have had problems with it flaking out. It would only go back like an inch at a time. I just sat there and opened and closed it for 20 minutes and it started working again
We don't have the auto up and down on the windows like the M3 or my sl, just have to slam the doors or use the key, if you press and hold the unlock button the windows will go down. Likewise if you press and hold the lock button the will go back up.
don't know if this was much help, as for the other things I'm not sure, I always take it to the stealer for oil changes and I've never had to replace the spark plugs. As for the wipers, I always keep mine on level 1 or the intermittent setting. every once and a while the wiper will go off with no rain, but it is great when it actually starts to rain. For the sunroof try an ECU reset maybe?

i finally got the the minor problem slove, the interior noise was the power window screw was loose, the window won't open and close by the remote cause of the battery, i bought it to a mb shop, they fix it all , now is nice and quite, runs smooth...

The rain sensor for the wipers is located underneath the windshield glass where the rearview mirror attaches. Looks a bit like a solar panel.
My car does not have this feature. From reading other posts, it sounds like the rain sensing wipers are no more than a mixed blessing since they tend to be out of synch with what you really need. I wish MB gave us a continuously variable knob so we could manually set just the right speed.
