maybe u need the parts in the steering column or put in a good working used steering column...

The key is faulty, try to use the original, have another key made.

brake switch problem maybe

could be starter solenoid,relay,or some car starter module. you can short the terminals on the starter with a screwdriver to see if its the solenoid.

its probably a worn key try another key or its emergancy key if you still have it or the ignition barell is worn its not that expensive about 30 pound or so to replace but a bit of a chew to get old one out

The fastest way to check a radiator fan is to turn on the a\c while idling , this should automatically turn on both fans at once, if they don't come on first check the fuses then the fan relay. If the motors are working when the a/c is on then your thermoswitch has gone bad (its located somewhere on the radiator, look for two wires coming out of it)

check fuses,relays by switching bad relay for good one.If it does not help,it sounds like the heater blower resistor needs changing

ANTITHEFT PROBABLY . THE CAR NOW THINKS IT IS BEING STOLEN. CLOSE ALL DOORS AND TRUNK HOOD ETC . LOCK CAR WITH THE REMOTE FOB THEN REENTER AND TRY AGAIN

sounds like your instrument cluster is not going to sleep have seen this problem it will also drain your battery if you don't drive the car everyday

most likely just the battery in key fob. take it to oreileys and they can test to see if its the battery

Isn't there either an outside lock for key access or an inside-the-cabin trunk release?

Try disconnecting battery for approximately 5 minutes, then reconnect.

hmmm could be the ESP inductive sensors on the wheel hubs are caked with metallic fragments and not working properly. They may need a really good clean. Easy to do if you know how to work on cars yourself.

heater motor brushes are a common fault on ALL C class Mercs.

New brushes can be picked up on ebay for £12.50. Its a 30 min job to change them.

It's typically the motors or the special drive tubes that it uses. If you here a clicking noise then the sunroof became to tight and ruined the motor gears. You can actually switch the two motors, one is for the shades and needs less power then the other motor. They are identical, switch them. Nex make sure they are very tight to the 3 mounting bolts, there is a rubber washer bushing that wears out and alloys the motor to flex too much, causing the gear mis-alignment and gear grinding. This works great I do it all the time.

one of the problems could be , you have a bad drain on battery, check charging system,if you disconect battery and hook it back up does it ark if so check all elecrical components for drain

fuse or motor chech these
