    Is it not covered under warranty at 2 years old?

    There's a few warning lights that have popped up like handbrake malfunction and abs etc I think I would need a proper star scanner I assume to look into them to find the fault?

    Think its electrically assisted on the A class? Thus a Steering column fault might also bring up other electrical faults. Have you modified the steering or suspension? If your only modification is to the engine than another Mercedes dealer might look on your case more favourably?

    this A45 owner had a problem with the POWER STEERING CONTROL MODULE which was replaced.

    Wow, what have you modified ??

    I'm pretty sure they can't void the warranty on everything just because you modified something **if** it is unrelated .
