Given the age of the vehicle, I would definitely have the in-line filter changed. As per your increase in the temp, you could have a bad thermostat and it could be stuck wide open or worse, could be frozen closed. I would also have the temperature sensor for the radiator replaced. It could be causing your issue. If you've had the A\C recharged recently, you could have a stopped up condenser\evaporator. Bottom line is your vehicle is 17 years old and I would suspect a bad sensor before trying to put a whole bunch of money into it. This would mean you would have to either have it serviced or, if you are able to do the work yourself, buy the part and replace it. Hope this helps

um.. due to tensions being what they are there..politically and otherwise..be happy you have a car there... most services are government run and special codes may be needed ..if you have no gps or whatever it may be blocked by the military for security purposes do not try to activate anything as you may put your life and very existence on the line...please be careful..I say this as a veteran myself..I was in germany in the mid 70s when the terorists thing first got started...

take your proof of ownership to any Mercedes dealer.they will get you a key

I dont remember if that year had a theft lock system or not, but I am looking into it. disconnect the negative battery cable for ten minutes and that should get you back to where you can enter the unlock code again and use the radio.
