2015 S550 - Idling + gears 2, and 3 rough

So after my most recent service bulletin fix on my rear axel (noise dampeners put on the rear axle), I started noticing that my car has been idling rough from the moment I turn it on, and every time I press the gas pedal in gears 2, 3, the engine sounds a bit strained like that of a pick up truck. I've brought this to my service advisors attention, but the techs say this is normal car noise. But I am certain that my car didn't used to sound this way. I even drove the car with one of the senior service guys in the passenger seat. Not sure what else to do at this point?

Also sometimes when I start my car I get a little battery icon with this message right under it "Start Engine See Operator's Manual".

I think I would consider taking it to a better MB service dept. and get another opinion.
