Basically first one is for 2001-2004
second one is 2005-2006
To check your ESP, 213 PML may be stamped on the front of it. Check engine bay.
OLD ESP no. are weeded out of EPC but the current ESP modules are
209-545-0832, 0932, 1032 which all support this mod
If you must replace your rack, might as well replace it with this rack and update the ESP module later on. The rack will function as a regular rack if you don't have it wired up.
I just did a little research on this and...OMG, Sunil. I'm convinced that you've got every single person beat as far as how much you've spent on your w203! Now that deserves the ULTIMATE props for the "Love" and "Passion" you put into your car.
Just based on all the OEM modifications you've done over the years alone, I wouldn't be surprised if that amounts to a very luxurious car!
the esp module is in the engine bay. near the drivers headlight. the older and newer part numbers I listed both have speed sensitive steering option. Thanks for all the compliments guys!
option 213 parameter steering...when I modified my C270CDI I thought I didn't need that option and didn't install it at the time but as soon as I drove around with my lowered wagon on 18s I knew I should have added the 213 option as well SO I did the same as sunil did (approx 8 months ago) and added the wiring and relais for the parameter steering (mine is an 01) and swapped the steering rack.
It is the one option I enjoy every single day...BUT as the steering rack itself is rather expensive, it is not something that most people will do unless you find a reasonable priced steering rack (I found a new one at third the price of the dealership).

greetingz,
greetingz,
Steve, did I have parameter steering already---code 213?
What's the differences between 203 and 211 steering system?
When you come here is it possible to modify my 211?
