105K mile Mercedes service sticker in door jam- means? - also "SLOW" cassette player

Sorry, this may sound like dumb questions, but I will ask anyway.

In the front part of the driver door jam, there is a red sticker on there with 105,000 on it and a symbol of a wrench on it. It apprears to be a tag that is typically already typed up, as if it was something that was supposed to be done @ 105,000.

Other than a timing chain, was any other maintainence due @ 105k that this sticker may represent? I do not have manuals to it yet, so not sure what it could be. I am sure it could represent an array of things, but thought someone may know what typically was done at 105K.

I did a search, with no results. My cassette player is original in my car. I put a new tape in it and it plays, but very slowly. It "drags" the song out. Is it likely that it is simply worn out, or could a head cleaner possibly solve the problem? I plan on buying a cleaner tomorrow and run it through there, but wondering if it would be a waste of time.

Thanks in advance!
