I've had a few electrical problems which resulted in a diagnoses of a bad aux battery on my 06 CLS 320cdi. I have one on order, but in the mean time have been taking the negative connection off the main battery in the boot whenever I leave it for a few hours to avoid drainage.
Yesterday while getting ready for a round of golf, I managed closed the boot and I guess it managed to lock itself in (though that hasn't happened before, the rest of the car was unlocked?).
I called the AA and he couldn't do anything. Didn't think it was worth trying to jump it from another point and use the central locking and we couldn't get access to the boot. It was a sunday so rather than hastily call an auto locksmith, I thought I would leave it safe and sound in the golf club car park and have a think about what to do.
So far here are my ideas:
1: try to get a replacement blade made by MB
2: Auto locksmith and a £300+ bill
3: One of you glorious people will have a better idea
Never before has the boot locked itself when the rest of the car was open. I initially thought I must have dropped the key, but hadn't gone very far and couldn't find it. Is this possible?
