Harness always possible,but you may have a bad coil.Put in some new plugs,inspect the old one's for fouling.My car had a miss but with new plugs ran fine for a few weeks.then I replaced the #6 plug and ran fine again.Changed the coil on that cylinder and its fixed.I replaced #6 because that was the plug that showed any wear after 2 weeks.
Some what possible MAS SENSOR,but not sure if mercedes runs ok with it unpugged.Most cars with bad MAS sensors run very well with that sensor unplugged.Quick way to check mas .
Plug wire's and coil extensions need to be checked also
Good Luck
Rich

I'm betting on the wiring harness.

While a bad coil or fouled plugs will cause some intermittent missing and some performance loss, a bad wiring harness will create the sort of havoc you are experiencing.

Mine acted just as weird until the harness was replaced.
