- 2004 W220 320CDI
Noticed something odd a couple of times. I'll switch off ESP (triangle illuminates), then decide to deliberately use too much throttle to slide for the fun of it and... the triangle will flash anyway, as it is in fact working after all...?
When I stop being an idiot and drive without any slippage it just stays on (so ESP off) and all seems as expected.
So does the W220 have some Overlord ESP that shall operate whether you like it or not... or what? Or is the flashing in that case a warning to let me know I am in fact an idiot for switching it off in the detected circumstances and it urges me to re-engage it..? I can't tell for sure if it is actually working.
