this is getting a bit out of hand...

guys,

this is getting out of hand. this is what electrical issue #3 for my 300SD? End of November I had an issue....tested it to death...determined aint nothing wrong...3 shops tested it (2 chain stores) one determined = bad alt. other said = it was fine. my mechanic said it was fine.

I pulled the car out of the garage this morning to give the guy working on the house some room to work...I get home to pull it back in...6-7 cranks and the battey is dead.

I've had no troubles ever since the 30th of last month and now what..what did i do? I havent dont anything with the electrical that could drain anything off....when the key was on..there is a 7amp drain on the battery...i was told this is about normal.

I need some help.

ALSO: When I did get it started, the engine had a low rumble..hard idle..then died. started it back up..was fine after a little touch of the pedal.

Much Appreciated,

Kris
