Teemu,
many thanks this is importaint for you as well unless you know the parts thay have fitted you cannot argue at a later date if things go wrong of course we hope they don't and if they do it's normally a couple of weeks after the warantee expires, but you should have this information for you complete service history. Itemised billing appears to be something MB avoid and yet without it you have no service history.
They have it on record but you haven't got access to their information .
I for instance had a new ECU at 3 years and 9 months the bill /receipt my invoice simply says 'mass airf flow sensor romove replace it if necessary perform short test.'

So from the service history point of view was it replaced or not? The answer is yes because I asked for the old unit back but otherwise I have nothing to say it was replaced apart from a bill for £897 note the date 03/11/2005 nowehere does it say it was replaced.

You do better if like me you purchase MB parts and fit them yourself ( this wasn't possible in your case ) because MB then give you an invoice with all the parts purchased detailed
with part numbers and price
For instance in your case I understand it's usual to replace the magnet in the sump of the transmission when changing the fluid, you wouldn't know at present if that had been replaced or not!

Having said that I hope your car is now running well long may she run.
