2003 SL55 Rear ABS sensor

[V8 Supercharger]

Hello all

My mate has a 2003 SL55 Kompressor and recently the ABS light came on. Had it diagnosed as the rear passenger side ABS sensor.

Had a look on the likes of Eurocarparts, GSF and ebay only to be able to find Front ABS sensors, no rears. Whats with the rarity? Or am i looking for the wrong thing?

Do not buy an aftermarket sensor. Buy from an MB dealer only.

Well MB part number is A230 540 1017.

Approx. £110, but only in Germany, will take about a week to get here.

Whats the story with aftermarket ones, fitment issues?

Thanks
