I was sitting at the drive thru window and my car just shuts off! Then when I try to start it up again everything turns on like the radio & lights and all I hear is clicking noise . Then after about thirty minutes the car starts up again. Now again same clicking noise and all the lights on. What could it be? I have a2001 e320 now with 93,000 miles on it. Thanks for your help.
