W204 C350
New to MB
Bought a C350 W204 in white about 9 months ago. This was my first Merc. Always wanted one due to its reputation for build quality and reliability. Was really enjoying the car until yesterday......

Would not start or unlock steering wheel. Google led me to this site, and within 10minutes of registering I found out enough details about possible causes.

Sent a pm to a member, and got an immediate response.

I'm looking forward to being a member of the forum!
