If the ESP light is on (because the wheels are slipping on ice) the cruise control is DESIGNED to not work. Once the ESP light is off, the cruise control should be able to be manually reengaged.

Smile ECU location - access

On the 2008 GL320 CDI (and I assume the 450 & 550) does anyone know where the ecu is located and how hard it is to remove/replace. I know, I haven't sprung for the W164 star manual yet!:D
Thanks
