Etc) Evry thing seems to be working fine. I am wondering if anyone has had this problem.

I've had some weird stuff like that happen. I'll start the car 1 time out of 10 and the BAS and ESP warnings will blink at me for a while. Next time I start the car, everything is fine.

It's just weird, I think.

Well took the car to the dealer and apparantly the stereo shop disconnected the speed sensor while installing the sub box/amps.
The dealer would not touch the car until the stereo shop removed
the box/amps, so I am making them remove/reinstall and pay for the repair. I also had a rattle in the door after they installed the door speakers, I have learned my lesson!

The stereo shop tried to blame it on the battery, the alternator, the current draw etc. "We had this same problem on an S class.
I had my lawyer call them and tell them he was going to have the dealer remove and reinstall the factory radio, replacing any damaged parts and sue them for damages, legal fees etc. They
are now paying for the repair.
