No power when cold
I have a C240
The vehicle is garage kept
When i go out in it and it is very cold outside and i have to turn it off when i turn it back on i get nothing no power not even a dome light on even if i flip it off and right back on. As soon as i flip it off everything turns off I am 95% positive its the battery but it is practically brand new.
So far this has only happened in the cold never happened till this year

Get the battery load tested, even if it's almost new there could be a defect. You can do that for free at almost any auto parts store. Also - make sure that the battery terminals are tightly connected and that there is no corrosion on the terminals. These cars can act very weird because of simple battery issues.
