A car that fails to start is a rare occurrence in this age of greatly improved efficiency and reliability. But it still happens occasionally, and the advanced electronic technologies that have made cars better have also made the job of roadside diagnosis difficult, if not impossible, for even reasonably handy owners. One of our expert mobile mechanics can provide an expeditious diagnosis and provide a quote for any necessary repairs.

Common reasons for this to happen:

If the engine cranks, but the car doesn't start:

  • Bad fuel pump: A faulty fuel pump won't deliver fuel to the engine, even if you've just filled up.

  • Bad spark plugs: Without hot sparks to ignite the fuel charge in each cylinder, there is no combustion and no expansion of the burning mixture. Thus, the engine will not start.

  • Bad timing belt: If the timing belt stretches or breaks, the engine will not run. Moreover, continuing to crank the engine may bring the valves into contact with the piston, causing serious engine damage.

  • Bad ignition coil: Without a functional coil to step up the voltage, there can be no spark. No spark means no start.

  • Faulty cam or crank sensor: If the sensors are faulty they will either provide no information to the ignition system, or will provide incorrect data. Either way, the engine will not fire.

If nothing happens after you turn the key:

  • Bad battery or terminals: Batteries have a finite lifespan, and terminals can loosen or corrode.

  • Bad starter: This should be obvious from the response to the key. If nothing happens at all when you turn the key, the starter may have reached the end of its life.

  • Ignition problem: This could be due to faulty contacts in the ignition switch, or in the wiring.

If there is a grinding noise when you turn the key:

  • Starter is bad: Do not persist in cranking the engine.

What to expect:

A top-rated mobile mechanic will come to your home or office to determine the cause of your car’s failure to start through a series of diagnostic procedures. You will receive an upfront, fair and transparent estimate for the necessary repairs. The mechanic will book a follow-up appointment to perform the repairs and will bring the required parts and tools. All repairs are covered by our warranty.

How it's done:

The mechanic will check the ignition system, fuel system, and charging system, and then look for any mechanical damage. The mechanic may also try an alternative fuel source, like a quick shot of brake or carburetor cleaner into the throttle body, or a quick shot of liquid fuel via a vacuum line. If the car starts momentarily and then dies, that indicates that you have a fuel delivery issue.

How important is this service?

It goes without saying that a non-starting car is an important issue to address. Do not ignore or abandon the car if it’s not starting; this is an issue that should be dealt with promptly. Book a mechanic to perform a thorough diagnostic as soon as possible.

I've never used this type of service before and was hesitant, which I'm sure most would be. But if Jonathan is was to expect from other professionals working for Your Mechanic, than I'm completely sold. Jonathan arrived on time and jumped right in. Prior to his arrival I had watch a Youtube video on the symptoms of my vehicle. The video I watched had a very skilled mechanic going through several procedures to drill down to the specific problem, but clearly the guy in the video seemed like he works with Mercedes all the time, so I was concerned what type of knowledge Jonathan might have on a Mercedes. Jonathan arrived, popped my hood, had me start the car, etc. He then proceeded to run through the same checks I just watched in the video! Not only that, I could clearly see Jonathan's skill level with a Mercedes. This man knew where everything was without hesitation. He is an extreme, highly skilled professional Mercedes mechanic. I can say this without a doubt. My wife had driven my car the day before, and it stalled on her in the middle of the row. The vehicle had been running rough before then. Jonathan checked to see if I was getting fuel to the engine, he then checked the fuel pump to make sure that it was starting when the vehicle turned on. And that when he asked 'is there fuel in the car?'. I was like, well it was a 1/4 a tank before my wife drove. Jonathan said go get some gas and I'll wait. Ran to the store, put 2 gallons in a portable tank, added the fuel and in started right up. Jonathan asked me to drive it around the block just to be sure, which I did and everything was fine. There is no doubt in my mind that if I would have taken this to a shop, I would have walked out with a $500 bill and a new fuel pump. Jonathan just earned Your Mechanic a customer for life. This man is worth his weight in gold (and then some). Needless to say - i'm extremely impressed. And embarrassed that my wife ran the car out of gas ;) Jonathan was friendly, professional, helpful, on time and most importantly honest.
