Hi everyone, been on here for a while but not really made any posts but would like some advice.

I own a 2005 CLK 270 CDI

I was serviced by MB in March this year, when I advised them the ESP defective visit workshop message kept coming on.

I had a phone call later in the day, when I was told the poly v belt needed changing and that was it. Takes car away continues driving until today

Car went for MOT, told it had failed on ESP, when I advised service dept that this had been picked up in March, so why was it failing MOT, was advised because its a safety issue with the braking system. Asked why this was not mentioned back in march and then relised I had been driving round in a car with a safety issue.

Spoke to dealer principal, who advised will investigate and get back to me.

Appears that the steering angle sensor has failed, £782 to replace, to pass MOT, heres the thing, because I was not advised at service this was an issue, they offered to pay half.

Would you all take the offer or push for them to sort it FOC
 
I'd take it and enjoy the car knowing it is now safe

Was thinking that anyway, mate winding me up about safety, offer of half the bill on a 9 year old car not bad really
