Could somebody please advise if the ESP unit needs to be replaced now that the warning massages no longer light up. The service centre says it should be replaced. They ONLY tried to delete the message, or reprogrammed it, using their diagnostic equipment but message displayed about the power steering and ABS problem did not go away. I reversed the car on a slop, the tyre slipped harshly, and the problem got fixed. Recently, I changed my brakes pads and discs. As soon as I took the car out from the service centre the warning lights came on. But it resolved iteslf immediately. Perhaps it was an oil block? Now it has got auto resolved by itself again. Does the ESP unit need to be changed on my 2009/12 c180?

ESP units very seldom require replacement. Problems usually relate to bad ABS wheel sensor data, Yaw sensor seating or cleaning the main ESP harness plug.

@Glyn, could any of these problem throw error codes that dealer can check?
@MBc180_2009, I would bring the car to dealer and ask them to check for error codes.

Hi . on my car the esp comes on every week . i stop the car and start and it rights its self . I've had a look at the multi connector on the abs unit , On the star system it says . C1120-16 N64 yaw rate sensor zero point offset error
of component . also C1120-014 plausibility . thought might be the yaw sensor
module . any ideas.
