C350 dont start
Hi i am new to this forum did some searching but did not find anything about my problem.
My car is a W204 C350 2007 LHD model i have from 02.2013 car has no impact. Car started acting up the engine cranks but no ignition sometimes i try for 20 min till the engine starts. Friend suggested to replace the fuel filter ( kinda expensive for a filter ) which i did and engine started from the first turn of the key, Two weeks later same thing i try to start the engine and its cranking but no ignition. Car has new battery tried even with cables from another car same thing engine wont start. i am in a dead end dont know where to look aside form fuel pump. btw in those 2 week car was running very nice had a lot of power and suddenly it died on me. would appreciate any help thanks

I understood the filter is part of the pump, so both is replaced thats why it sounds expensive, thats what the dealer told me C350 2008.
I assume your symptoms are exactly the same as before, just a wild thought....
I was thinking, seeing your engine cranks and battery replaced, and was ok when filter/pump replaced for a period, I as thinking whats in your tank-?
Did you fill up from a place you normally do not-? Maybe filter is blocked again-?

Have you tried connecting it to an OBD-II reader? Even if your CEL is not on, it might have triggered a code that is "pending" and therefore it has not trigerred a CEL.
An advanced OBD-II reader can also provide some insight on fuel mixture as well as ignition functionality which can end up being a problem solver!

Ok, it seems you have something to confirm.
