grease points that are part of regular maintenance?

Do any of you folks know what parts should be greased as part of regular maintenance? E.g., door hinges, etc. but I need to know what the "etc." includes that is done as part of regular dealer maintenance

And is red (high temp) lithium grease ok to use?

thx

If you are talking about a ML?? none.

However the sunroof tracks need to be cleaned & lubed every year IF you use IT.

Thanks, MBDoc. I swear the door hinges etc. always were a bit whiter from lithium grease when I brought into the dealer for maintenance.
One of the door lock mechanisms makes a slight groan noise when I open the door now do I figured it needed some grease.

As for the sunroof, I only tilt it and the only thing annoying is the rattle of the popup deflector mechanism. Too worried about bird poop to open it all the way ;-)
