SLK350 owner here.
I have seen references to several things failing during a battery replacement, mostly on C-klasse. Such as body computer, etc. Changing the battery is easy but the risk of expensive component failure makes it wise to let the dealer handle this procedure.
No, there is no reason not to change the air filter yourself. Get the OEM filter, it is the best. I order my stuff from getMercedesParts.com (and getBMWParts.com for my BMWs) but there are other places where you can get discount genuine Mercedes parts, too. My SLK has the same engine and it has two air filters -- make sure you check how many you need.
There is no such thing as Mercedes site like SAABNET. Nothing comes close to SAABNET in terms of competence and caliber of discussion.
