Hello
my wife is having a problem with her car and I’m hoping that someone on here can give some suggestions about what the problem might be.
The car is a 12 plate SLK55. The car is refusing to use the Eco function. The symbol on the dash disappears and the car does not drop onto 4 cylinders. This is intermittent at the moment and no engine warning light is displayed. I have charged the battery with my Ctek charger. The charger shows that the battery is partially charged but the charger will no go into it’s maintenance mode which makes me wonder about the battery. The car still has it’s original battery. The battery starts the car OK, so it’s obviously not that low, but does anyone know if the Eco mode is very battery sensitive? Typically the car will start and run for a few miles with the Eco and stop / start functions working fine, then it will drop out.
As I have said, I’m hoping that the knowledgeable folks on here migh have some suggestions about what is happening.
thanks very much.
