Hey guys, new to forums, hope can find some info here. Got a 2012 C63 and wife told me about 3 weeks ago the car sounded like it was struggling to start so we got the battery tested and guy said was about 75% charged still, went on driving car fine with no noticeable issues or even starting. Drove car perfectly fine this morning to work, after work I got in the car and to my surprise the car doesn't start. Radio is on, key clearly unlocks car, fuel pump sounds like its priming so I just thought ah maybe the battery has finally given out and changed it without retesting it. Popped new battery in, hopped in driver seat, still nothing. I briefly read about some steering column issue but I don't believe it is that as my wheel doesn't lock, it locks and unlocks as the push to start engages.

The car doesn't crank, doesn't do anything so I assume it isn't a bad starter or alternator. Can anyone point me in the right direction of what I might want to check? Car literally just got 35K and noticed it now says Service A 1100 Miles, not sure if that has anything to do with it. Thank you

Edit - disregard, misread original post.

Have you tried starting it with the key in the "ingnition" - not just with the push start?

Yes I have, same result. Tried spare key as well

I would check all the fuses and make sure they are all good.

Thanks for the input guys, ended up being my starter...anyways all fixed and good now.

How much did the starter + labor end up costing you?
