![]() ![]() The alignment is bang on as it's been checked on 2 machines now but depending on where I put the wheels on the car, it affects the tracking. What I do know is my tyres, although all the same brand, are or some reason, worn at different tread depths, maybe replaced at different times for whatever reason. Mechanic seems to think it's something to do with CANbus but I'm not sure. The only ESP error that shows up in a DAS scan says something about ECU coding or software, checked the ECU, it's the original for the car. Having this exact same issue with my ESP (W164 ML63 - 2007MY - 50k miles)), it's fine round town, hard or soft driving, soon as I get on the highway with the cruise on, it starts playing up, usually when I knock the cruise off to slow down but often when it's just cruising also. The only thing I cannot find is the torque specs for the transfer case to transmission bolts, and what do I seal this coupling with. I will rebuild the original on my time and put it back. I am in the process of obtaining a transfer case with low miles and changing it out just to get it going again. It turned out that there was just enough slop in the transfer case chain that the ESP recognized the front wheels were at a slightly different speed than the rear wheels and it shut itself off, which consequently put me in limp mode and I had to pull over, shut off the car, and restart it to continue on my way. I also started noticing it if I was going down a slight incline where I let off the gas. it was just enough that when I let off the gas or disengaged the cruise it would trip off the ESP. I put it in the air and found out that there was a very small amount of play between the 2 drive shafts. ![]() I also felt a tiny clunk when this happened coming from the center of the car. I don't know if you got an answer for this problem or not but I was experiencing the same problem with 150k miles on my 2008 ml63. ![]()
