How is everyone doing? Ok I have this challenge it seem to be electrical, my vehicle C320 4matic 2005 started showing the alternator sign visit work shop, but despite this the car still starts, so I decided to change the engine belt as the present one was worn out. Since I changed it the alternator sign hasn't come up again but I notice the dash board lights blinks, including the headlights and inside lights. Also recently on attempt to start the vehicle it kicks but wont start at 1st attempt but starts in the second this doesn't happen frequently though. I have been checking videos on youtube to check for the possible cause so I decided to bring it up here for possible advice/solution. Thanks for any useful tips. |

Luxurydriverng:I suspect you have a short-circuit somewhere; if you recently worked on the car. Check for live wires or lose connections. Also check the wire that supplies current to Ur starter motor if it's touching the engine or not properly insulated. |

Needless to say, the vehicle has to pass a number of tests after the assembly process. #23. Cars With An Active Perfuming System The S-Class cars have four different perfuming options.
