Hi Steve and welcome.
Your best bet would be to take it to a local independant garage who specialises in Mercedes and has a Star diagnostic machine, get it plugged in and see what faults it throws up as it could be a number of things. Must be a Mercedes Star machine though.
Where abouts are you? Some of the members here may be able to point you in the direction of a good garage in your area.
