Thank you for using FixYa,com.

Hate to tell you this but it might be the timing belt broke,or the computer chip in your key went bad.
a code reader might pull up a code for you to locate the problem further

you need new brakes and rotors your rotors are warped also check make sure no debris is stuck between the brake pad and rotor

Try changing the remote batteries first sometimes that can be the problem. If that doesn't help at all then most likely you may need to replace the remote key. Also double check the setting in the instrument cluster to make sure the easy entry option is set to steering wheel and seat. The other possibility may be if the battery in the trunk is weak. A low charge can cause problems too and you may or may not get a message on the cluster that reads consumers offline.

generally resets , push odo buttom and hold while key on w/o engine start

hi this means that the vehicle has now come to the required service interval you have completed the amount of miles required up to this period in other words it need a service...hope this helps

One of my customers had the same problem. I sprayed all the bushings with WD-40 and the noise went away. The rubber bushings have metal sleeves inside them that bolts go thru, over time, rust will build up and you'll get a squeak. The newer cars have alot of bushings on them.

sounds like the dual zone climate control is malfunctioning, does your car have this feature?

I would look for a short in a wire and double check the light controls to make sure the interior lights aren't set to be on continuous. If that fails remove the light switch and see if that resolves the battery issue. If it does you know that is the problem and can replace it. Also, check the Main power line from the battery to make sure you haven't had the insulation where thin on it someplace allowing it to ground out.

you are required to take your vehicule for a scheduled maintenance. basically just a reminder from your friendly dealer to bring your money to them

For a Mercedes,that's a DEALER fix.

if the dealer already changed one side and its fine i would go back and let them do the other side cuz then the parts and labor would be under warranty

Yes it could but i would suggest checking the crank position sensor as it will not throw check engine codes. Also go to an auto store and have them pull the codes for you for free.

look inside the fuse box and tucked into it is a paper sheet with the fuse layout

Hi the steering pump uses a belt to drive it, when this gets stretched it will slip, oil can also get on the belt causing it to slip, so check the belt, make sure it is tight and free from oil, also make sure the power pump reservoir has oil at the same time

Need to find a vacuum hose leak and replace the hose. Look for the plastic hoses and the black rubber adaptors. Over year, these are cracking causing a leak hence there is a problem. When you put in gear, the engine carry a load but there is no engine compensation that is why it stalls. The engine only knows when it senses through the vacuum loop. Good luck.
