front end faults...

Is that the exhaustive list of ALL active faults? Try not to single out these 3 front modules to consider ALL modules that are acting up.


Radars + ESP + ...

These being "stored" means it's not a hard fault but a part-time transient condition.

You can try to figure what these modules share that makes them actup: chassis bus, power...

One module can disrupt the bus and spoil coms for perfectly good units... you can disconnect radars to see if your ABS/ESP works normally.
Trust this particular module is not built to fall apart prematurely unlike the radars that are not waterproofed.

Has this car been repaired for a front collision ... radars?

you don't always need to just replace everything. MB are super well built for quick service.

Some of the questionable parts can be overalled easily...

Did you replace both batteries at the same time? I had similar behavior with non-communicating control modules and I had to disconnect both batteries at the same time to get the messages to clear. Disconnecting and reconnecting individually did not clear the error. This is when I had a weak main and was trying to nurse it along by regularly charging it.

Not at the same time the problem is it’s sometimes working and most of the time not working

once you find out the root cause of your part-time chaos, you may have options to replace or rework.

If you have a multimeter I would check your new MAIN battery for its current state of charge and also it’s value while car is running and battery is charging. They sell weak or dead batteries from time to time and you may have one. Takes 5 minutes
