Thanks John

ohlord

you can diy it.
62000 miles,oil and filter change,flush brakes,flush coolant,change air filter cabin filter and charcoal filter,inspect belts and hoses.change power steering fluid and in keeping with the newest info change trans fluid and filter.mb spec only and the new 7 speed fluid is approved for the 722.6 trans just as good and half the cost.
diy's for most of these jobs are on benzworld.org w210 section and mercedesshop.com diy section and various posts here and on benzworld.
have fun

Thanks for the reply ohlord!
You didn't mention the MAF and the spark plugs?
Do you think they should be done as well?
I also have the infamous bulb failure warning to deal with!

Plugs are at 100,000 miles so you have a lot of km to go !
Maf are not a maint interval item,either they stay good or they eventually fail,so if you ever get the cel lit up and the codes for the maf scan then you replace the maf insert,very easy to do.
The bulb failure is easy. Replace the bulb that is out,if hard to locate which one it is isolate it via the test procedure that is detailed on benzworld.org w210 section.

Hello again
I am about to perform a 105K service on my Benz, not sure where the internal air filter is? ,, do I need to flush or replace the Trans, fluid and trany filter as well?
Any advise will be appreciated.. Thank you all

If you are talking about the air filter cabin filter you have to take out the glove compartment to have access. Not hard to do but find one of the stickeys because there are some screws that are hard to find. Also, there are some "snaps" to watch out for.
