Hi guys, I'm not sure if I've posted this in the right place, but here goes.
I recently purchased a 2011 Mercedes C220 CDI. It's been running almost flawlessly apart from one small problem. Very occasionally it seems to be having trouble starting. Most of the time it'll start without issue. However, I've turned it on a few times and the engine starts to crank, but immediately stops. It doesn't struggle or sound laboured, it just begins to crank, then immediately stops before the engine fires up. I don't think there are any warning lights or messages. This is also unfortunately happening when the engine is in start stop mode, so I'm having to turn the car off and try again when the traffic lights have gone green!
I've been looking for anything that might match up when this is happening, but I'm really at a loss. It's going in to get looked at in a few days, but I thought it might be worthwhile to have a bit of information to go in with.
Any help very much appreciated. Thanks!
