Help! ML350 Won't Start
Hello, I just attempted starting my car, and it won't start.
When I turn the key for ignition, engine attempts to start, but it is "stuck" cranking and does not start. I did leave the car for about 2 weeks, so thought it may be the battery issue, but I am unsure since I've never encountered this kind of behavior before. Dashboard Lights that are on: Triangle with exclamation mark Triangle with car LIM (ABS) SRS Check Engine UPDATE Had it jumped using a friend's car. It did start after a few "coughs" with all the dashlight warnings going away except for the Check Engine light. Check Engine light blinked a few times before it became permanent. I was able to feel that something was wrong with the engine (weird vibrations). I let the car run a few min, then turned it off, to see if the check engine light would persist if I restarted it. Strangely, problem went away when car was restarted - no check engine lights or the weird vibrations. |
Search around the forum. Have heard of this a few times before and it usually points to the famous cam (or crankshaft) position sensor issue.

Check your gas cap maybe?

Never mind the above. I just saw you updated your post.
