hi guys
Sold my Bmw last week and have always wanted a w204 since my prevouse job before going self employed having one as a company car.
Found mine c200 cdi sport in black good miles perfect on bodywork private sale, went to view it tiny bit of negotiation and it was mine! Last night had to travel 60 miles and went straight away in mercedes, half way there had stereo headlights heaters etc on, and headlights went extremely dim. Then when I pulled over wouldn't turn off, the blue main beam light was on instead of the green headlights, even though they weren't on. Traction control not working came on, wipers stopped working. Had to bring it back on fog lights and they kept flickering,
Put a new battery on today hoping it would solve it, went to come home in dark same thing dash flickering and the brake lights came on and won't turn off, even with key out and car locked!
So had to come home and explain to wife iv been "had"
Has any one any idea what it can be I am slightly mechanically minded which also makes me fully aware what a auto Sparky costs! I don't really have to time or money to be sending it in
Preclude owner phone off!
Car is a 2008 c200 cdi sport
Any help is really appreciated
