ABC visit workshop white light in cluster

Hi guys,I have a 2005 SL500 with only 32000km,I flushed and changed the hydraulic fluid and filter in the ABC system and I have a WHILE light in instrument cluster that says ABC VISIT WORKSHOP.
This problem occurs when the engine is cold or at rest when I start the car, in the beginning I would get rid of the problem by shutting off the engine and restarting it after about 5 minutes running but now it takes 10 to 15 minutes, WHY ? WHY? WHY?
One more thing that happens when I restart the car when the system is working fine is that the BACK STRUTS make a small noise and goes down a little bit
Notice that I have changed twice the filter, the 1st time when I flushed the old oil and the 2nd time a month later.
I hate this problem, cause my car is not running well as it should be, sad cause I love my car… any help would be great ...

You need to acquire a diagnostic device of some sort which will provide answers to these questions when they arise.

I'd invest $300 in a Chinese-cloned Star Diagnosis System (SDS) or find an independent shop that is equipped with SDS.
