Hi All, I'm going to tackle replacing the seals in my Brake Master Cylinder today. As I've got that out and need to bleed the brakes anyway, I'm going to remove the ABS pump to clear a blocked drain hole and give it a good clean. Do I need to do anything special or is it just a case of...

I have an E320 CDI Elegance auto that has ABS ESP BAS warnings, took it into a dealer to be told I have one cracked driveshaft target sensor and one completely missing....... Also told that target sensors cannot be sourced separately and need to replace both drive shafts at £600 each plus...

Hello, having issues with the ABS on the r129 500sl, I have changed the rear hand brake shoes as they were buggered, I have cleaned the rear disks and pads, put new front pads and cleaned the disks, and put in new front sensors, but the light still stays on, I don't know where else to look to...

Hi all, I bought a 2004 639 Vito 109 CDI 6 months ago and have noticed a problem with it. It would appear I have no ABS as I sometimes lock up my wheels under hard braking. What is particularly odd is that the ABS warning light doesn't come on. It is there just not lighting up. I just wanted...

Help, I've just had the alternator replaced on my w210 e320 cdi and it seems fine. I've reset the steering sensor after disconnecting the battery and the warning lights went away. Today, the ABS ESP and BAS warnings show when starting the car (no touch of the brake pedal). The brake lights...

Whilst driving along today the ABS light came on followed by an ESP malfunction and pre safe malfunction on the dash. Carried on driving and the steering got heavier and heavier. Can anyone enlighten me as to what that all means please and is it going to cost me loads to fix? I'm hopeless...

Hi there, Newbie to the forum so forgive me if this is obvious. As per the post title my E320 CDI (2001) Avantgarde has an intermittent fault where the engine revs drop momentarily when driving, knocks out cruise (it will re-engage) and flashes up ABS BAS "Visit the workshop" lights. Then...

Hi all, I have a 1998 W202 C250TD estate. I have an intermittent ABS issue and took it to an Indie last week who diagnosed it as ABS ecu fault. Does the below look like an ABS ecu issue? Faults: C1306 (5306) C1306 REAR RIGHT AXLE SOLENOID VALVE (HOLD) (A7/3Y12): OPEN CIRCUIT/SHORT CIRCUIT...

hi all coming home from a funeral yesterday along the A55 just outside Queensferry and the ABS light- BAS esb came on ,frightened the life out of me so pulled over and rang my friendly garage who informed me not to worry i could carry on back to merseyside as it sounded like a brake sensor...

I am currently looking for a decent Merc under £1000. Today I saw a reasonably nice pre-facelift W202 C200 but when I took it for a test drive the ABS light came on. I walked away. The question is should I have? What's the worst it could be?

Going round in circles with this problem. When I try to drive off in my 2007 r class the ABS activates at or below 5mph without pressing the brake pedal. It's the front passenger wheel that is stopping. Can't drive the car as it brings it to a stop. The ABS and ESP lights are on. Had a mechanic...

Hi Anyone have an idea what this could be. Driving home from holiday yesterday (with 4 kids in the car) about 80 miles from home the ABS light came on. Got two error messages on the dash. ESP defective visit workshop ABS defective visit workshop. As everything else seemed ok so I...

Just bought a 05 (dec) e220 cdi and noticed the centre computer readout on the dashboard between the rev counter and speedo is not displaying anything although when I viewed it yesterday it was working fine . Then after ten miles of driving the abs light comes on with a pinging sound and I have...

Hello everybody, I suspect the answer to this question will be the ubiquitous STAR machine, but the forum is a pool of knowledge so I thought would check if anybody has experienced this before... Occasionaly on startup, the four amber warning lights listed above come on. They dont go off when I...

Hi all, I have the dreaded SDC reset light on. Does anyone if the local mercedes dealer resets it for free? I have heard of some that do! Even though the brakes work fine with the warning light on will it pass an MOT? I assume it is test centre dependent. Thanks Greg.

Hi all After a bit of advice regarding the ABS system, so thought I'd ask the collective knowledge to see if anyone else has had a similar problem. On start up the BAS/ASR light comes on along with the ABS light and the brake wear indicator. Engine won't rev above 1,000 rpm which I...
