Hi guys

I am in South Africa. I have a 1999 C180 Classic ( I think it is Esprit in the US). I bought the carsecond hand.
1. Recently there is a clicking noise comming from the dashboard in around the glove box/ airbag area. There are nowarning light togive a clue.It sound like mose code. (maybe aliens).

2. The other day my battery went flat. I recharged the battery but when I pressed the windows button so that they go down them selves it did not work I had to press the botton slightl until the window is down.
I drove after that and as I was taking a sharp bend the car accelaretate instead of activating the ASR.

Am I heading for doomsday? what can I do to solve these problems.
