My manual 6 speed on my C230 sedan is hard shifter at times. Clutch is good, Master clutch cylinder is not leaking so I think it is slave cylinder. I went to by a slave rebuilt kit and not available, Mercedes calls it a joint flange release lever for $300 to $700!! Does it have a slave cylinder or what are my options?

    It probably has the slave cylinder as part of the clutch release lever/throw-out bearing. This requires removing the transmission to replace.
