Pointers re final 50k free MB service??
Going in for final 50k MB free service.
My 2002 AMG clk has been running almost flawlessly.
Are there any warranty items that I should bringing to the attention of MB service?

What I did was to have a conversation with my SA and asked that since its the end of warranty and free service that he has the car gone over very carefully. He did and found a few small items such as the rear diff pinion seal was seeping and was changed plus a few other small things.

Aren't there also sensors, not sure but remember reading about MAF? sensors that go bad and should be replaced?
Also airconditionaing components?
I need a long checklist/complaints...

Since you live in hot, humid Florida I'd definitely have the A/C checked out for peak performance. There is a body control module that will store non ECM related codes...the are several A/C plenum temperature sensors (and the interior sensors in the ceiling by the map reading lights) that control how the system works. There are sensors on the A/C plumbing itself.
I had mine in for service and the tech found a faulty sensor - I didn't notice it at the time, but afterward the A/C would blow even colder air after they did it.
They could also check for A/C high side / low side system pressures to make sure the proper refrigerant charge is present. Just mention that the A/C doesn't seem to cool as quickly as when new to get them to look into it.
