new user here but i just had this problem today. 2008 gl450, about 26,000 miles. have never had any problems with the car before but today, abs/esp lights come on as i was accelerating off some gravel. lights stay on but car drove ok for about a mile. after re-starting car, it was hard to accelerate but gears were switching. after another stop, car went into limp mode and couldn't go above 25 mph and engine was revving.
towed to dealer; it was a wheel sensor (just 1). have driven the car all day after the fix and everything seems fine. fingers crossed this is resolved. good luck.
