Hi Guys,

I am facing something similar. I have a mercedes s500 1996 model, it's japenese specs. The problem I am facing is, when I run the car after it has rested a while, the ABS/ASR light turns on, the steering wheel becomes a little stiff and the break works normally, though the car does not go into limp-home mode.

Please advise me as to what might the issue be? Is it a problem asking big investment? Or would it just be a problem of ABS pump/sensor etc? As I have read elsewhere that when the ABS malfunctions the ASR turns off automatically.

Now why is my steering becoming stiff? I don't understand that, and when I start it again after a while, everything is normal. Can anyone please explain?
