Crank and stop

[legend]

Hi all bros. this morning when I tried to start the engine of my 2012 W204, a weird thing happened. It cranked but out of the sudden, it suddenly stopped! One second it was cranking and the next thing i know, it stopped completely. Silence, nothing. Light was on but the engine just goes silence. I off the ignition and tried to restart it which it did. Touch wood but have this ever happened to the bros here?

Bro, I think your battery going kapuk soon... suggest get it check lah..

Hi bro. thanks for the suggestion but I just changed my battery 8 months ago. Could it be another factor causing this? BTW, does this car comes with a second battery?

Bro legend, suggest visit a WS to have them check out, saves you loads of agony...as Merc battery can sometime just went blank all of a sudden if you aren't careful enough to notice, and when this happen, you may need to tow your ride to your WS which will cost additional (basement and multi storey carpark = $120 per tow, open air carpark jacked up = $80 - 100).

Car battery = $180-300....

Tks bro Dyeeng. will definitely visit a WS for my battery check
