Hi, I have had my E350 2011 Cabriolet in the garage and have now been told the engine is locked up and absolutley no movement on the crank pulley.
The car was driving fine no problems serviced as shoul and had been done 500mile previous.
Driving down the motorway the car suddenly cut out And all power went off, the car continued to roll and slow down, i shifted to N and pulled off the motorway.
Then car would then not start just made a loud clicking noise 3 times, the cooling fan would come on when remove the key, the radio wqs on and off, seat belt extenders stuck out, windows not working, the key would sometimes not respond the ignition wouldnt tuen on with key have to use other key. ( this is random which key works and which dosnt).
Question I have is would there be anything that would cause the engine to "lock" other than it being siezed or chain snap etc,
There was no noise or bang when cut out and i was at high revs.
Why would the electrics behave like this if the engine locks up
Thanks
