errors displayed when turning key
When, in the morning, i insert the key and turn it right, my central display shows a lot of errors (ESP, ABS, Airbag, etc.). In addition, the gearbox is blocked in park. If i turn the engine running, the fan runs in high speed.
After several attempts, removing and inserting the key, the car behaviour becomes normal.
During the rest of day, no problem, no error.
In the next morning, same "inferno".
Dealer can't find the problem.
Someone did pass this weird experience?
Thank you in advance.

Engine wouldn't turn off
Cabriolett E class 2013
I have been having this issue intermittently for last few months.
Sometimes after a bit drive, car doesn't switch off after turning the key and taking it out. Car doesn't even lock, basically doesn't respond to any command from key. I thanged the batteries in the fob and tried other okey but issue persisted.
Now for last couple of weeks, now it has stopped starting at times. but after few minutes able to start. Today it didn't start at all. Everything else is working,
All thiese issues started after replacing the battery (genuine MB battery).

When the car is still running when you turn and remove the key how do you get it to shut off?
I wonder if the car not starting has to do with the starter going bad?
The batteries in the Key fob only control the doors locking/unlocking. Even if those batteries are dead the car should turn on and start. Unless there are other issues.

It usually starts responding after 10-15 minutes and then I manage to switch off.
Todays it displayed presafe function limited warning while it was on.
After I switched off the engine, it didn't start for 2 hours but when attempted afterwards, switched on but after 500 meters gave the same warning again so decided to come back home and parked it. Just checked again, not starting again.
I took it to a mechanic few days ago and he said that the issue was in ignition assembly and would need to be replaced.

I had the EXACT same symptoms with my 2008 Infiniti G35x. Check under the carpets for water. If you are having these problems and there is water in the floorpan, you can expect never-ending phantom problems. The water has infiltrated the wiring harness and wicked its way into electronics. If this is the case, you MAY get lucky and dry things out after finding how the water is getting inside. In my case, the problems started after several days of hard rain. I contacted my insurance company and they totaled the car, which was good for me because they paid way more than I could have sold it for.
