2008 Mercedes Benz c200
Hi i own a 2008 mercedes c200 cdi, its a diesel, manual, right hand drive as I live in the UK. I had it now for over a year and since I had it it's been perfect no problems whatsoever, and just 2 days ago it failed to start and showed up with several dashboard warning lights, such as the battery, check engine, seatbelts restraint, presafe inoperative check manual, abs and esp unavailable, and when I jump started it I started driving forabit and slowly all the electrics failed on the car (windows, air con, radio, infotainment,) and Speedometer, rev gauge stayed in one spot while i was driving, rev stayed on 2 and a half and speedometer stayed on 40mph, and no idea what's going on, from running perfect to not starting and the start not staying on, help is much appreciated, thanks 20180226_194417.jpg 20180226_194411.jpg

Welcome to the forum Azaad.

Start by getting your battery fully charged. At least 24hrs on a 6amp charge. I suspect a lot of your faults are down to low voltage. This cold weather is finding out batteries past their best. You may need a new battery if the charge isn't holding.

MB's really hate low voltage - seems to throw the whole system out of sync. I would also be checking the output from the alternator.
