I've read through all the posts, and I go along with Gilly's prognosis. Disconnect the ABS and see if that solves the problem. If it in fact does contact the dealer and go with Tim's scenario. It wasn't corrected under warantee as it should have been. If the dealer shines you on, yell him you would like a meeting with the zone rep. If the zone rep doesn't want to work with you, then tell him you have no choice but to go to corporate. At the corporate level you can slip in the fact that you will be forced to resolve this issue as many other MB owners have by buying a trouble free Lexus.

I have been a factory trained MB mechanic for 30 years and have been loyal to the marque, but I have lost faith in the direction of the company. MB no longer produces fine automobiles. They produce garbage for the masses. On some of the newest series they put a sensitive transmission control switch just under the center console. This switch is subject to moisture, but where did they put the cup holder? It is right over the switch. The list goes on with design screw ups. Sorry but I have lost faith in Mercedes.
