just reset the service A.
Make sure your filter and spark plugs are good...
maybe flush the transmission or radiator or engine flush...

MB recommended intervals:
Brake flush - every 2 years
coolant flush - every 3 years
air filter - every 45k or 4 years (might be 60k on your car...can't remember)
fuel filter - every 60k or 4 years
Spark plugs - every 100k or 5 years

man for me, i go to jiffy lube by my house.. they treat my car like gold, i never had a prob at all.... they are very careful with my ride.
as far for the tune up, i go to my mechanic who knows about german cars and i trust him the most.
unless u bougth the extended warranty then i would go to dealer
