I have a 2006 CLS which has keyless door entry, but I noticed today when I pressed the button on the handle to lock the car that it would not work.

For a while now, when starting from cold, the engine turns over fine, but doesn't start for about 8-10 seconds, followed by a small cloud of dark exhaust fumes at the back. It hasn't got worse (or better), but starts fine when warmed up. Batteries are fairly new. Any ideas what the...
