Mercedes C Class ESL W204/212 Steering Lock Failure: 

Recently we have been having many enquires about failing ESL (Electronic steering lock) mechanisms on the Early W204 C Class (2007 '57' onwards) Symptoms of the problem are :

The steering lock on this range is unlike other models, and the car relies on a signal from it to allow the engine to be started.  If the car's other computers do not see the signal then it shuts down, making it impossible to start for safety reasons. 

We can offer a mobile service, or a direct to trade service if your car has been taken to a garage already (Please get the garage to contact us)

For more information please fill out the Contact us form!

Called Matt when I had a problem with my EIS ignition on my W221 S Class Matt diagnosed what he thought the issue was on the phone and was bang on correct. I travelled up to the West Midlands to see him and he resolved the issue in less than an hour - something that I was being quoted 5 days+ via the post. Can't recommend Matt enough - he really knows his stuff - swift and friendly service. My new go to contact for anything Mercedes electrical related.

May 9th, 2023(ESL faulty)...called/texted Matt around 8am pertaining to my wife's c-class 220, went to work, great dialog via text, I explained everything to him the best way I could, fitted me in the same day around 4:40pm, but worked around me as I finished work late. Very approachable, knowledgeable, quick and efficient guy, was like a godsend, as I wasn't able to get car towed beforehand. Will definitely recommend and use this/ these guys again if need be. Mercedes mobile life saver a gem 👍. A. Smalls

Matt sorted a new key for my Mercedes Sprinter today. He responded to all messages and emails to book the job. Turned up on time and sorted it for a good price. I couldn’t ask for more. Also gave me security advice and how to sort an airbag problem I’ll be going back. Great service. Thank you Matt 😊

Helpful and knowledgeable, fault found, key repaired and a new spare key programmed ready to use. All at a very reasonable price. I can't recommend them enough if you have a key or ignition problem with your Mercedes-Benz.

Called Matt as I had an issue with my key fob, he guided me over the phone to check a few possible issues, first one being the fuse for the antenna, turns out that was the issue and it fixed the problem of the fob not locking and unlocking the car. Great service from a kind person who was able to assist me over the phone. Would highly recommend Matt`s services. I had already been directly to Mercedes in the morning and they had no idea what the issue was and just told me I have to buy a new key fob. Thank you Matt. 👍
