Hi guys,
I have a 2003 w203 C270 Cdi.
The car was driving fine until recently it started to slowly breakdown while driving.
Now the car won't start at all. The car won't even crank.
I took it to a mechanic and he said he couldn't read any codes.
He suspects it to be a faulty ECU...

Hi,
Starter has just gone on my C230K, I,m happy changing it but is it easier to do from above which i think will require removing stuff, or can it be gotten to easier from underneath the car?
Any pointers will be greatly appreciated.
Hello,
My name is Mike and am new member in this forum with some car issues. I own a Mercedes Vito WDF639, 109 CDI.
The problem is that my car sometimes starts and sometimes not. When I turn the key starter begins to engage with the flywheel, but sometimes after a few crankings (just...
Hi All,
Hopefully this is the right section...
I've owned my C63 AMG Estate for just over 2 months now and everything has been generally excellent. Car was purchased from Mercedes Benz Direct.
In early July the car wouldn't start after being sat on my drive for 2 days. Upon investigation by...
Hi All,
Trying to help a mates son out and he has just bought an SLK 200k with a fairly bad leak from the front Cam Magnet. I was wondering if anyone had part no's for these two parts? I need the blocker too which I understand is called the Starter Line.
My plan was to clean as much oil...
seeing as there may be a problem* with my starter motor on the 280CE I got hold off another one (allegedly recon) off the internets for a good price.
So, today, as for once it's dry I thought I'd have a go at fitting it. And got precisely nowhere. Has anyone ever succeeded in removing...
Starter battery in my R230 SL 500 needs replaced, tried looking online but most replacements are too high at 175mm the Varta OEM one that is fitted MB part No, A2305410001 is only 140mm high. Has anyone found an alternative starter battery that fits or is this battery a unique size to the SL...
Hi ppl I'm new here so sorry if this post has all ready been done but I can't find it.
What's up with my starter motor is that it lost all power to it & the solenoid so I took it out the car to find that the wire from the solenoid to the starter motor had corroded. So took the brushes out of it...
A few weeks ago I turned the key and got nothing apart from a click. It then started fine on the second attempt and its been fine since.
Today I tried to start it and it did the same thing, except this time its took 5 minutes and around 10 attempts before it decided to start.
Does this sound...
I might need a starter motor for my 1993 2.5 190D, can anyone confirm if the four cylinder 2.0 and five cylinder 2.5 190 Diesel's use the same starter motor?
managed to get the bonnet open but car still won't crank over. abs and esp lights all on and cooling fan kicks in but just won't turn. checked the fuses and they're all good. brake lights work fine so don't think it's the switch. gearshift goes through the gate ok. new battery in and just the...
hi everyone,
i'm new to this club so please be gentle, a neighbour was about to scrap his CLK320 'v'reg for no apparent reason than he'd bought a new one. so rather than see it go to waste i bought it! it's been on his drive for over a year and needs some love. at the moment it's stuck in park...
Ok car is an a140, i had a lazy starter (valeo) that would only click or wind over slowly when booster pack was attached.
Replaced it with another valeo starter from breakers tested before fitting and worked fine.
Now fitted to car, new starter wont do anything, have looked for starter relay but...
