ML320 ABS fault

[ML270need50more]

HI guys new to this. If my question has been covered elsewhre please kindly point me to it - thanks.
--------------------

My S- REG ML320 just failed an MOT due to an ABS fault which my mechanic has said is down to the HCU. Kwikfit said it was the solenoid pack. I have a contact that can re-build solenoid packs and re-wire pump motors but not HCU.

How do I find out for sure and where can I get a re-build service as my local MB want £1500 !!

please help as I truly love the beast

PS. firend of mine has located an ABS/ETS unit from a W164. will that fit?

No, it needs to be from a W163. I would put the vehicle on STAR to ensure that is your problem.

ABS lights are a Common fault. Worth doing some digging before shelling out big bucks. My repair cost for my wife's ML 270 was 6 quid after a 1200 pound quote from the local stealer
