my car have power issues and lights of (abs esp bas) sometimes here and sometimes not, also my steering wheel is sometimes strong and sometimes not , the car running slugglish most of the time but suddently it can be a beast...
i Went to the mercedes dealer and they telling me its the esp ecu unit to change and that all those problem are related to this...
Put the mercedes diag i have those codes coming of the ESP ecu unit on
(C1149,B24/2,B34,A7/7B1) The voltage supply of the components has interrupt or short circuit
(mass air flow sensor already change still power issue)
cant it be a k40 voltage problem ? i suppose i have to check the voltage of the relay before changing my esp ecu

I had terrible experiences with my MB dealer in regards to them diagnosing issues. I used to have a CLK500 that got some pretty major water damage from a clogged drain vent. ECU, SAM, and bunch of other stuff they said it was all bad quoted me $5800. Friend of mine recommended an indie specifically good with Benz and he went through and tested everything and found only the ECU to be bad. $1000. My point is if you feel you need to bring it to a shop do not bring it to the dealer they just throw parts at cars. You may have much better luck with an Indie.
Good luck!!!!!
