Im new here so first off hello
I am having issues with my 03 W211 320CDI (199,620miles)
I will list them each but maybe some are caused by the same issue?
1. ABS Not working
2. ESP Not working
3. SBC hold Not working
4. Brake service - All fine replacements front and back with in the last 12 month (SBC counter maxed?)
5. Battery warning on start up with disabled convenience functions for a limited time.
The main battery in the boot reads 12.5+/- 0.2v and has a clean bill of health after health testing (even tried a new battery and no change)
Small battery under bonnet reads around the same 12.5+/- 0.2v and again ok after a health check.
From the on board computer on start i get as above 12.5v ish then a dip to around 10v while cranking and then upto around 13.5v+ after a few sec so i can see the alternator is working.
Its not that the battery is dead as such as its never not started or even shown a low enough voltage for me to be worried about as i have been keeping my eye on it for a while now.
Dont really know where to go from here, i am taking it to maindealer to see what they think next week but to be honest if its going to cost a fortune (£1000s) then maybe i will think about getting a new car.
My SBC unit (Bosch 0 265 960 018 - hw05/03 sw16/03) are they covered under a warranty or max 10yr?
big post but i have tired to provide as much detail as i can, thanks for any input.
