ABS doesnt work
ESP doesnt work
speedtronic doesnt work
tempomat doesnt work..
and also wheel is really heavy to turn....

and it was dangerous to brake without esp and abs...

and when i stopped i restarted car and everything was ok.
but today my car have the same problem when i was driving and when i restarting it doesnt change..

Wild. I hope mine doesn't behave the same. At 180mph. I just finished a 1500 km run through the Kootneys. There were some crazy corners and great passing opportunities. While we never got to 155 mph we pushed it real hard for 2 straight days. The ML63 was flawless. When the little 6 second 0-60 cars tried to play they were left behind so fast it was crazy. This truck loves to fly. Passing three cars with no room we too easy. The suspension is perfect over the bad and unexpected bumps when cornering hard at speed.

Could very well be. However, you can only be sure what it was if the dealer stardiagnoses the car. So tell them to get their heads out of their asses and start diagnosing the bloody car!

Disconnect the battery for 2 minutes...

Very Slow Mercedes
Does AMG still use the 155mph speed limiter as they did on the early models,If so it could just be loss of communication between the computer that shut down and the other ecu's....Either way they should fix the damn thing instead of telling you that paid a ****load for the thing to disconnect the battery for 2 minutes..

yes they do limit it to 155, however you can have it removed by amg, my dad did this with his ml6.3 .

Loads of fun on the autobahn, passing the m5 and m6's with more than 170
