I just finished getting the car washed and now not won't start. I took the push button out and still nothing. All my gauges and command come on, but no clicking or any attempt at turnover. I'm waiting for roadside assistance now, but who knows how long that will take.

Mine did that out of the blue. Turned out to be a bad starter. Part was $300 plus I think an hour of labor.

bigkev21

Was it covered under warranty?

bigkev21

Roadside assistance said starter or ECM. Waiting for a tow to the dealer now.

Mike5215

Yeah, mine was CPO

Same thing happened to me last summer. It was the starter battery.

bigkev21

I should find out tomorrow. They towed me, gave me an E350 and sent me on my way.

bigkev21

It was the starter. They are replacing that, my trunk close motor and a driver seat bladder. Hopefully have it back tomorrow.

Mike5215

You're loving that warranty now. Post what that whole repair was when you get it back.

bigkev21

I will. This is my second time in the 4 months I've had the car.

The starter has it's own battery?
How many batteries does the S class have?
