Thumbs down GLK engine Dies

good morning, i have a GLK300 2013, 276 engine with only 1600 miles, but a heavy problem.

the vehicle runs fine, but all of the sudden and randomly the engine comes to a stop and all the lights on the dash stay lith. i might add the vehicle has keylessgo.

after scaning it with the star diagnosis tool, it show the flowwing error code:

P1CE200 La función de arranque y parada ECO ha detectado un número de revoluciones del motor demasiado bajo

wich translates to: the start and stop eco function has detected a very low rev number

we did a SCD codification for the ME but after a week, the vehicule came back for the same issue. my folks have adviced me to check the hal sensor for the crankshaft, but i want to get a second opinnion on the matter.

so again, vehicle runs fine, dies, but after steping on brake and pressing the keylessgo starts again. the failure is random and happend 4 times already.

has anyone experienced something similar??

2013 with very low miles - is it not under warranty? Take it to the dealer and let them handle it as a warranty issue.

As a MB tech .................( from your post/profile)

I think you should have lots of 'resources' as a MB tech.
Either way - I have one hint for you = BOSH!

(since your first post - if engine starts and runs and stop @ random = implies its the BOSH CONTROLLER) - which sounds like the nearly same issues I have had in one my past MB car)

Hope this helps

The main battery is a new 80AH AGM Battery and the auxiliary battery was replaced about 2 yrs ago. When the auxiliary battery went, there was a clear message on the dashboard and it prevents the car from going into ECO stop, not really preventing it from restarting or stalling.

How do you test the auxiliary battery? The only time it failed there was a clear message was on the dashboard. There are no error or error messages this time except P1CE200.
