Hi

I own a 2013 CLA220D, Recently I've had issues where when they traction control lights comes on when a wheel spins and causes loss of power, the power never comes back and revs to around 3000 (Reduced power mode). I have to pull over, turn the car off and on again to which the car then runs find again until a wheel spins. I turned the Traction control off and the car is fine, when a wheel spins the power stays. What could be the biggest culprit for the issue? The car has been plugged in but is returning no faults.

It's been difficult to drive over the last few months with the cold weather/ice as the wheels spin easily.

Any help will be much appreciated
 
Firstly, just to say that in 15 years of Mercedes ownership, I've only seen the ESP light come in very rarely... probably no more that 3 or 4 times in total, in extreme conditions.

I am not berating your driving :D just thinking out loud whether there was always something wrong with the ESP system on your car? Of course, if you like a bit of spirited driving in the rain, then that's fine.

Then, the fault codes need to be read by MB STAR. Where did you get these read?
