Default Re: $2,500 Help!!

Steenport I wish I had an answer for you. Mine, an 05, had some ABS/ESP issues which seem to have corrected themselves. Does it not seem that a lot of the problem vehicles are 04's ? Sure seems that way to me. I spun the tires coming out of a slippery lot a few winters back and the ABS/ESP light came on. The spoiler went up and wouldn't go down. I tried the reset, and it still did the same thing. I came in and made an appoinment with the dealer and when I started the car a few hours later no more problem. This happened one other time, so twice in the 3 + years I've had my car. Our Mercedes did the same thing and it was a steering angle sensor. Mercedes was able to diagnose and fix that after two trips. I guess my point here is this scares me about our cars, nobody knows how to work on them and even if you know a good Mercedes shop chances are they wont work on the Crossfire.
