Manufacture has told us the charging needs to be reset via the manufacture's computer if the battery is disconnected. Otherwise the alternator overcharges on the new models. Bit off topic, but to late now:)

From AA quick reference guide, ''The key is not being recognised for what ever reason. Try in the first instance ,by removing the smart key from the igntion switch,then reinserting it half a dozen times.If this is not successful disconnect the battery for 1 minute then reconnect.If the key still does not turn try a spare key or tow to dealer.'' Worth a go but have not tried this method myself.Goodluck.

Had a C200 on the lot, The salesman went out one day to do a monthly battery check and hay what do ya know dam thing wont start.all lights still working so I went and had a look I managed to get it going by jumping a wire from +ve to the starter. Had it scanned for codes and off it went to a merc dealer in Hamilton for a new key and ign barrel 2k later and the dam things still sitting there on the lot.but it starts now lol
