Advice pls, on used ML55

I'm looking into buying a used ML55 w/ 28K miles.

Can someone give me some ideas on how much it will cost to:

Do an oil change at the dealer?
Service A and B?
Brake pads?
Any known issues or recalls on the ML55?

Thanks!

It's a 2001 w/ 28,000 miles. Any other opinions? Should I pass on the car? Or will I regret it?

The significant upgrade after 2001 is an automatic climate control. I have a 2001 ML55 Designo from new and it has been a great truck. It is just shy of 50K miles and going on very strongly.

Go for it, if the price is right.
