I have power flushed all my MBs with the Motive unit and it works great. Well except the 2014, they did it as part of the servicing for the CPO, so it will be due this coming spring.

You can engage ABS just going down your street (assuming you don’t live on a busy street). Get up to about 25 and stomp on it and hold it in (pretend a kid or dog just ran out in front of you). Just be sure no one is behind you. This will engage the BAS (first introduced on the W210) as well as ABS. You will feel the pulsing in the pedal and the car will come to a controlled stop with no squeals and most importantly no pull to one side or the other.
