W204 C220CDI wont start!!!

[Gaiex]

Ok, first problem on my w204,
Today morning I was shopping and at lunch time when going home I enter the car, put the key in, radio turns on, etc.. but the engine does nothing!!!
I have power, but the engine is like it was dead! not starter engine nothing!

I call MB 24h service and after a while on phone I tried another time and it started!

The only warning message I had was "ESP and tyre pressure system not working" well, it was not working, it was something else I can remember/translate.

Happened with someone else?

I also called a MB technician friend of mine and monday I will put the car on MB, He sayed that coul be the CAN circuit or the auto transmission with some fail!

At least I was near home!

I went the next day to the dealer and he connected the car to DAS, and it had alot of errors!!

It seams that its a CAN bus problem!!

The solution... wait to see if happens again, and compare the errors to find out in which component the error was started!
There isn't a specific component error, but a bunch of error from many components!

I'm also getting several message errors some times, but an new one every time!

Oil level, folding rear seats, tyre pressure, etc...

I will be posting

PS: There was allready one service action for my car requested by the factory, the AC belt pollie. (My dealer didn't know what was the problem with that!)

Ouch. Brand new car, brand new model.....brand new problems I hope the dealer looks after you.

One has to ask how it left the factory in that state.

Hope you get it sorted without too much inconvenience.

Nope, till now no problem, but I have to leave the car on the dealer to change some part that was advised by the factory (all w204 c220cdi) but not related to my problem!

Gaiex, I also have a W204 220cdi, could you let me know what you have had replaced? Was this a recall by MB letter or is something that's kept quite untill service time?

Thanks, Andy
