First, I suggest scanned the ABS Module, in order to know exactly what fault code is stored there, just with this information you could do it.Good luck.

which fan interior heater or engine fan

Is engine running on all 4 cylinders when it starts? If it is not it may be the control module on the inner wing under windscreen washer bottle, failure of this module is very common. You should have a scan done to check trouble codes as the control module, is very expensive, good used control modules are available on eBay

The noise is the result of air bubbles in the system due to low fluid level, if allowed to continue without repairing the leak the pump will be destroyed.

Your keyless remote is equipped with 2 different systems. There is the RF system (long range, lock control only) and the IR system (short range, locks and convenience features such as remote window roll-up and roll-down). It sounds like your RF system isn't working. The only way to test the system, that I know of, is with a Mercedes scanner. It is likely a bad remote.

Summary:Monitor oil leaks: keep fluids topped up. Consider repair if the leaks are major.Replace / Check: Idler tensioner - if this belt breaks you won't have cooling and the battery won't charge.Miss-Fire: find the root cause and remedy poor fuel economy and can damage other components like the catalytic converter and these are not check to replace.Don't spend $4200 with Mercedes - find a reliable mechanic who will do the work at a more reasonable cost.I have to assume that the car looked & drove well when you bought it otherwise it would still be on the lot. I think $4200 seems a bit steep - The dealer you bought it off may be able to recommend a mechanic see them first but if not them certainly see another mechanic other than Mercedes - if you don't have a mechanic you trust head towards a larger franchise business in Australia we have places like UltraTune & K-Mart. As far as what I would tackle - I am not sure what "Leaking Motor Mounts" - but I will assume there are some leaks - I would be guessing minor ones from the motor. Even though they may sound bad they are probably your lowest priority if they are small you do need to keep an eye on them however and make sure your fluids are kept topped up. Get the idler belt checked - they can be a pain to try to do yourself get the belt replaced. Then look at your miss-fires. Have new spark plugs put in regardless (is my opinion). See if there error still persists if so then most times it is ignition coils that is the problem a mechanic can check this by swapping the 3 & 6 coil to other cylinders and see if the error moves, replace the affected coil. If the error stays on 3 & 6 it is likely blocked / faulty injector.
