E240 2.6 V6 AVANTGARDE 2003
Hi all.
I've recently been gifted a Mercedes e240 2.6 v6 avantgarde 2003.
I've changed both batteries, but something is draining it, almost instantly, she runs for 15 mins, then stops, when checking the voltage after 15 minutes, it has dropped from 12.6v to 11.6v and won't start again.
I think this maybe a common problem for that year of car, she only has 67.500 miles on the clock.

Hello and welcome,

A drain like that, I’d be checking the diode pack on the alternator
