Hey all I recently just having an issue with my SRT where if I pretty close to floor it from a slow speed the car will jerk really hard and go into what seems like limp mode and the BAS/ESP light will come on. If I pull over and turn the car off and then on again the light is gone and the car drives normally.

i saw some other posts where people were having intermittent problems with the ESP light but did not seem similar to this and I’m wondering what the issue might be?

if there is a thread where this has been covered just point me in the direction and I will do the necessary reading

appreciate the help in advance.

 

when the ESP light is on, scan your car for codes.
Inspect the drive shafts flex discs
With the traction control switched off do you get the same resultant warning lights?
You need to use a scan tool that can get into mercedes specific codes; a generic OBD II scan will not get you where you need to go.

 

the first time it happened traction control was off. The 2 times since have been with it on. I’m assuming the codes would be stored though since the car will only go about 20mph once the light is on. It would be tough to make it happen and then drive it somewhere like that since I don’t have a code reader at home
