Clean the maf sensor with crc brand maf cleaner.diy on benzworld.org w210 section.Sensor insert can be purchased for about $127 at germanstar.net
cleaning helps about 50% of the time.
early on most don't notice the change but left to long and fuel econ will drop and potential damage long term to the cats.
ecu will adapt to the new or cleaned unit after several drive cycles.
