Merc 2.5 16V Broken ASD System

[marty65]

Hi All,
Can anyone help? I bought a 2.5 16v 3 months ago. Only found out the ASD warning bulb had been removed by seller. ASD system is not working. Car not handling great especially in the wet. Is this an expensive fix? I would think so but can anyone advise, I would appreciate any help, suggestions. ideas!
Thanks everyone,
Marty.

It may be expensive depending on what is wrong. Speed sensors are a faverourite. Start with the basics first.

Hi Marty,

Have you had the fault codes read to actually determine what the problem is?

It could be a very cheap fix depending on what the problem is - brake light switch is a common one (about £15 and 10 minutes to fit)
