CLA EPS Guide
CLA C117 and C118 share the same column-assist EPS as the A-Class. Symptoms and fault codes are identical. One CLA-specific note: the CLA's wider front track relative to wheelbase means the steering feel change from a failing torque sensor is more noticeable during low-speed parking manoeuvres.
Cost
- EPS module replacement: RM 600–1,500
