W204 C63 ESP Module replacement part

[TurbineT]

Hello There

Ok so unfortunately just had my w204 2008 C63 on the STAR diagnostics at the dealership and my ESP control unit needs replacing, they have quoted me £1180 with fitting. Is there anywhere I can find the parts cheaper? Only asking in case my warranty tries not to pay me out.

Thanks

Jack

Sounds as if the unit is covered. A replacement unit may need to be coded to the car-not sure?

Yes mate, it has to be done at the dealer, but the warranty are happy for Mercedes to do the job. Find out more info tomorrow, but looks pretty good to me if i'm honest

Guy said at Mercedes the ESP modules itself a quite rare for them to go
