I disagree. Toe-in changes any time the car's height changes, and that is common as the front springs sag.

I assume you sprayed WD-40 on the stuck threads and gave it a day to sink in. Try grabbing the fat housing of the tie-rod end with a pipe wrench or large vise grips. You could also try heating the threaded end w/ a propane torch until red. Worst-case if you force it is you would need a new outer tie rod end and adjuster. You can buy those for most U.S. cars, but perhaps junkyard for M-B. Mine were never stuck, but CA cars and don't know if you live in the salty north.
