Mercedes Benz C Class the starter is not turning the engine and then sometimes it does
Variant: C180
Model Year: 2000
Categories:
Engine & Drivetrain
This problem originally started about a year ago and the local garage thought it was the starter motor but when they successfully jump started it they decided to fit a new battery. For ten months the car has been fine but now the exact same problem has commenced again. I left the battery on charge for 8 hours but the engine didn’t turn for six attempts but then turned after another go. Does anybody know what could be causing this?

You need to test the battery voltage first and eliminate that .Even after charging it could still be low if any weak / low cells . But a " lazy " starter will drag the battery down also and may be the cause
