Random Issue on Startup

Hi All, I’m having a random issue when starting my w202 c280. Sometimes the car will turn over, but not start. Any ideas on what it may be? Battery was replaced less than 5 years ago. Coils, plugs, wires are only a few years old as well. It’s a M112 with around 194K miles on it.

I’ve attached a video of the issue. This happens intermittently when the car has been sitting overnight or after driving. I was thinking maybe an ignition switch, but not sure.

My key is less than a year old and replaced the cps sensor a few years back as well. Thanks!

have your battery tested @ any major auto store....4-5 yr old batteries are near end of life
