hello

my question is what shows the bas/esp light, what can be wrong, i haven't watched that does the car have brake pad sensors

 

laf1247,

I recently changed the rear brake pad sensors and the ESP light came on. I simply turned off the ESP button on the dash board and the ESP error had disappreared. I guess the brake pads would have been fitted correctly, otherwise, this error would have come back.

 

Hi Mercedes Gurus:

I have recently bought my first used Mercedes(C220 Cdi, W203) and I still have to deal with few problems and like to know about these problems myself first and hence saving money

1) Brake Lining wear, visit workshop (I have changed the rear pads and front pads are already good. I was hoping that it will disappear but it had not)

2) My hand brake does not come back to its position after pulling the lever and car thinks, I am driving with the hand brake on. I was hpoing that by changing the rear pads, this problem would have resolved, but it has not. I have currently pulled the hand brake up with force, so that each time I drive, I don't hear the bleep and a message with red light in the dashboard.

3) My driver side electric seat has stopped working. I have checked the fuses on the right to stearing wheel and also in the bonnet and all seem to be working. I have to drive in an ackward position as I can't move the seat back in a comfortable position.

4) My car makes annoying noise like a timing belt in the engine when it starts, but I have been told, it can be a water pump belt.

5) I have also done the service in the car and like to remove the service message in the dashboard.

I did read few messages but none of these seemed my car specific, I will really appreciate any tips from any mercedes expert mechanic or owner.

 

Just change the brake switch ,, its around £12 from delears n it will rectify the problem.
