Rear Axle ABS Reluctor Ring

Rear Axle ABS Reluctor Ring
I've been looking on various websites and this forum but can't seem to find anywhere to buy one of these. The website linked below is as close as I've come, but still no luck finding a reluctor ring for the X204 rear axle.

The thread below illustrates the issue I have, but on a different model: https://mbworld.org/forums/e-class-w...b-removal.html
If anyone knows a site where this part can be found I'd really appreciate the guidance. Otherwise it seems like I'm stuck replacing the entire axle which is pretty tough to swallow considering the cost of the ring itself is minimal.
Another consideration is that I still have a few months on my drivetrain warranty. Think this would be covered if they don't sell the reluctor ring separate from the axle?
Thanks in advance for any help.

So, after searching a while longer I found this website which I hope is reputable because it seems to show that I can get just the impulse ring, part number A 230 357 01 82
http://mbepc.net/1/fg/glk/62v/204987/0/35/030
I find it very strange that when I search that part number on other sites, it doesn't say the part is compatible with my car. Is this a common occurrence that anyone is aware of?
For example, I can find 2303570182 on this site, but it says it's not compatible: https://www.buycarparts.co.uk/triscan/7205041
Is that online catalog a reliable source of information?

Sometimes the parts locators are incorrect. But since the GLK from first production to last never changed, you can assume the part number is correct. For only £10 per ring it is not even damaging to the wallet if the part was incorrect.

FYI, I contacted MB warranty department and the Impulse ring is covered under the extended Powertrain warranty. What a great Monday, glad I didn't pull the trigger on ordering pats last night.

In my case MB replaced the entire axle. They apparently do not replace the ring by itself.
That however doesn’t mean you can’t. If they hadn’t replaced the axle under warranty I’d have ordered the ring by itself and tried to replace just that component.
