Mercedes and Chrysler did not include it in the B service purely for marketing reasons (calculated cost of ownership) ... They wised up on later models ... If you don't want to change yours, don't . Your pilot bushing WILL start leaking eventually (so you should change it before you get ATF in your TCU.
Very unusual for plugs to need replacing before 80,000 (even 100,000 which is the factory spec'd interval) ... your fuel filter does not last as long ... you may want to check that (and at 34,000 and 14 years, you are overdue for a charge cooler pump failure which will surely cause dodgy performance).
If you want to discuss the ATF change interval, don't expect anything further from me on it as this is a worn-out silly debate (except perhaps the case of a car with 180,000 miles that has never had a tranny service... )

Thanks, I think the Intercooler is what I need. Ordered one up along with the steering dampener for FCPEuro. Will possibly have brake fluid replaced as well. Car really felt sluggish this year. Like the supercharger wasn't kicking in all the time. I think I already did the electrical connection piece myself soon after I go the car in 2014. Though I remember seeing ATF on the floor which caused me to research the issue and find the easy fix. Unless that was some other part that would cause a leak to the floor?
