I have a 2001 S500(21,000 mls), it was serviced less then 1,000 mls and now it shows a sign saying ABC inactive visit workshop. The sign on the dash does not cancel and it does not all me to look at any of the menu.
The car has not been used any differently and cannot understand what has caused this? The only thing I can think off is that the day before I drove the car with a heavy suitcase in the boot.
What could the problem be?Do I have to visit the stealers?
All help and advice greatly appreciated.
Update - Just took the car out and checked the manual, found the following out:
-there is a banging noise (over bumps) from the near-side rear wheel/area.
-The message on the dash still says 'Active Body Control ABC, visit Workshop!'
-Checked the manual, and it is a 'C2' Message (Medium to low priority) and states if this display appears to not exceed a maximum of 50 mph(80 km/h)
-The car height cannot be adjusted
Any ideas of what the fault could be?and the Costs involved?
Would I have to go to the stealers or could I get a specialist to resolve?
What would be the best route to take?
Thanks
