1999 C280 - Would not start?
I have a 1999 C280 Sport with just over 100,000 KMS on the clock. Last night I was out for a short drive, maybe 20 mins. I stopped to run into a store and when I came back she wouldn't start. I tried cranking her over 3 or 4 times and she would just turn for a few seconds but not start. After 3 or 4 tries she stopped turning all together (like a dead battery) but all of my electrical (radio, windows, lights) were still working. I ended up getting a boost from CAA. Drove home turned the car off 3 times and restarted fine.
Does this sound like the battery needs replacing? Should the dash light come on to tell you there is a problem with the battery? I bought the car used and the battery looks to be original. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
