dont think it will be relay,more like an electrical fault with a pressure sensor switch or the motor that pressurises the system .This will throw out the computer on the vehicle and too find the fault will require merc software because this is regarded as safety and therefore its encrypted.

Ignition lock would not turn, what is the
First go to a lock smith and ask to get your lock sprayed with special lock lubricant they have. Do not use WD40. If still stiff you'll have to replace the lock cylinder. I avoided this hassle by removing all of the brass thingies inside of the old cylinder. Now the ignition is always easy to turn and anything you can fit in there will work. You still have the security system to prevent anyone from entering the vehicle, and besides, no one but you knows that a key is no longer necessary. In my case it was WTF as it already has over 278K on the odometer. You'll have to remove the cylinder to do this, and this is not easy, but at least you will not need the extra key that will be required for a new lock cylinder. Good Luck!

Key will only open drivers door
Your FOB may be programmed to press once to open the driver door, press twice to open the rest. This feature is to prevent uninvited guests jumping in the car when the driver getting inside the car the same time.
Check out the FOB key setting.

96 mercedes e300d water being thrown out of the
Your antifreeze ratio may not be 50/50 (antifreeze/water) and the radiator cap may need to be replaced. The cap should hold 8 lb of pressure but if there is to much water then antifreeze, the coolant will boil over faster but be careful not to have to much antifreeze. Too much antifreeze will gel up and cause over heating. Good luck and hope this helps. Start with the radiator cap replacement and flush out the oil antifreeze and replace with new coolant with a 50/50 mix, you can buy them premixed 50/50 if you not sure how to measure it. The proper amount your car takes is 9.5 liters total fill.

ABS / ETS
Have your brake pads and rotors checked if you have worn pads this will activate the ABS Antilock Braking System light. The ETS Electronic Traction System uses this ABS to prevent skidding if the tires should lose traction.

Cant find tranny dipstick
I am not sure if I remember or not , but if you were standing by the pass side tire lean over back of engine there should be 2 dip sticks the oil then right next to it but lower is the trans . you might have to reach your hand behind the pass side cyl head / intake and feel for it. and most mercedes do not come with dip sticks they have special caps on them that actualy break when removing . the dealer ships or mercedes service shops have the dip stick and new cap. so yours most likely will just have this cap not dip stick . I cant remember any late model that came with a dip stick . mercedes only wants certified techs even checking it.

The right way the batteries should go in key fob
If you look very closely at the lid for the transponder the positive and negative symbols are shown.On the batteries themselves you will see the markings. Once you get them installed hold your lock or unlock button and make sure you infrared light is illuminating in the clear lens There may even be an l.e.d that illuminates. The problem is probably your synchronization. Put key in the door tumbler and turn it. then remove key and attempt to use central locking. You may find you have to put it in the ignition and turn to position 2. The resynch. procedure should be in your owners manual. Hopefully the vehicle starts and you didn't knock the microchip out of the key as well. Hopefully I have been helpful
