I've bought my first merc e-class yesterday. However on the way home the cruise control was on but all off a sudden an error message appeared "cruise control and SPEEDTRONIC inoperative" and the car went into limp mode. I pulled up on the hard shoulder and turned the ignition off and on and then the car was back to normal but the ecu light is still on.
Then today I was driving when the car snapped out of cruise control and was just revving, it was saying it was in drive but all the car did was just rev. When I turned the ignition off an on it was ok again. This is very alarming and I must admit it has put a downer on the feeling of buying a new car.
The trade guy I bought it from said that he will pay for a diag on the car and if I am not happy with the outcome I can have my money back.
Can anyone suggest what the problem could be? Or if I should just take it back?
