You need to recenter your steering wheel; in a nutshell ESP thinks your are stuck in a skid.

Sometime it can be a little picky and might take a few tries to get centered "enough"... but to also go along with that, once the ESP BAS light has gone off it can sometimes take a short drive before it will turn itself back off.

How off was your steering wheel? Was it obviously off a lot or not too noticeable? Mines a tad off with ESP and ABS lights on here's a pic of mine off a tad.
