First of all guys, thank you for your tech info. The initial spare part no.
5099301AA was given to me by the stealership staff (after insisting). As mentioned earlier, i pulled the numbers off from the image of the spare part icon in the mopar site
And have found a lot of used ones on Ebay ranging from 20-130$. After spending a lot of time looking through that, what makes me unsure is that the same part has been pulled from older vehiles i.e. a 1998 CLK or 2002 S class and im not technically experienced to know if that it will work on our cars.
Regardless, the stealership way is definitely out of the picture here. I`ve currently booked another appointment at a private Chrysler garage on Tuesday just to see if i will be getting the same diagnosis. If it comes to that i`ll replace it with one from Ebay and hope it will solve the problem. Do you guys know if this part requires any programming / VIN match in order to work ? All i know is that after installation (with the battery - unhooked) i need to reset the indicator through a diagnostic machine.
