Starters

If you have a vehicle that is refusing to start, there can be a problem with a number of parts under the hood. There are many different components that make up the ignition system in your Mercedes. The starter is one of the main ones. The symptoms for your starter malfunctioning and other different parts are very similar, so it's important to get multiple components checked out if you're experiencing them. Your starter is the part responsible for your vehicle being able to get going from place to place. Some of the different signs that might indicate a problem with your vehicle's starter include smoking when trying to get the engine going. This is never a good sign in any case. The battery having consistent issues might have to do more with different parts of the ignition failing. If there are clicking noises when you put the key in the ignition, this could also be a starter problem. It's important that when you go to replace your starter, you invest in a high quality part to take it's place. Only an OEM Mercedes starter should be considered for the job.
