W212 E250 CGI intermittent long cranking

Hi all,

Following a recent replacement of fuel pumps on my 2010 W212 E250 CGI, I have noticed
that about 4 out of 10 starts take longer than normal (about 4 seconds).

The car is under warranty, so I took it to Mercedes. They apparently reset something which
was meant to fix it, but as soon as I got home and tried to start it again, I noticed that the
long cranking issue had returned.

I will be taking it back soon. The battery tested OK. Mercedes is adamant that it is NOT due
to pump replacement, but I know that long cranks started immediately after that. Prior to
that, starts were perfect.

Any idea what could it be, please?

Thanks

Milo

Hi all,

Replaced the battery in the key and the issue disappeared!

Thanks
