Hi - I have a 2011 C250 and have a strange intermittent fault. Basically the car will be driving all fine and then sometimes the ABS/ESP Lights will come on and the cruise control/speedtronic/limiter will not function. The run flat indicator also turns off.

Once you turn the engine off and start again these lights go and may not appear again for days.

I have had it in at the garage and they have looked at the codes but cant see any fault and the engine management light is not on when this happens.

Any ideas?

Cheers

Rich

Faulty wheel speed sensor.

Merc have a common problem with them across the range, its a frequency issue inside the sensor and you must replace them across an axle in pairs. If you don't, the other side will start playing up.

The issue is your garages diagnosis equipment not able to pinpoint the fault. Seek a MB specialist close to you who has access to STAR.
