My car is a 1998 C-280, with 20K miles onit. Just started to have problem with starting. When the smart key goes in, and is turned to start, the engine cranks for maybe a quarter of a second and then stops. It happened four times in a row, and then started as usual. In the last two days I had two episodes of this starting problem. Cranks for a split second several times in a row, then all of a sudden starts as usual. Any thoughts or suggestions? Thank you....RSL007
