Angry Esp!!!

the best thing to do is take it to the dealer and have it checked.

Try getting used to it... it's another problematic W211.
I have been suffering so many problems from mine and will get rid of it next year.

Go have it checked out for the peace of mind.

I have keyless go & when I used to crank the car, somethimes the cranking would stop, so I would restart the car & get the ESP warning. It turns out that the stop light switch was the reason for the car to stop cranking in the middle of a start, since you have to press on the brake while starting, and the stop switch intermittantly told the car that my foot wasn't on the brake pedal.

When you don't get a smooth, continuous crank & start sequence, apparently thats the warning you get when the car starts. It always goes away with the next successfull crank/start sequence.
