abs

Well I've been driving home today in the snow and I've noticed a weird problem with the ABS.. I've had it a couple other times but never really paid any attention. It happened once in the snow so I thought I'd recreate it by making the car slide under braking. What happens is the pedal goes...

My seat cordoba 02 1.9 TDI has had an abs light and a power steering light on for the last few months. MOT is due and left it to the last minute to check it into an official seat dealer to check it over. Jaw just dropped when they told me i would need a new Power stearing control unit (£800)...

Can anybody tell me if my '97 16v should have ABS? I thought these all did and under the bonnet there is something that definately looks like an ABS pump (big block of ally with copper pipes coming out of it). but the other day I had to stamp on the brakes to avoid a kid that ran out from behind...

Hi guys just wondered if anyone could help me. My ABS light comes on sometimes but then wont for ages. I went for a drive today probbaly around 50 mile and it didnt come on once. Then i nipped down to tesco which is like 2 mile away and it comes on. It comes on randomly. I have changed all the...

Was the Arosa available without ABS ? My sister has a Lupo, without ABS the garage reckon. She needs a rear beam after a collision on a roundabout and the garage have had two 2nd hand axles in which they reckon were off a Polo cos they "didn't fit" :confused: I've rung round this morning...

Might be a really thick question but where is the ABS sensor and how do I go about replacing it? I've just had a dealer knock £250 off the value of the cupra due to the ABS light being on so I thought I would fix it myself if it's straightforward or else get it fixed. I've read on here that...

I recently stumbled across a thread somewhere (sorry i cant remember where it was and havent been able to find the original). Highlighted was the fact that new ABS units being installed on MY09+ seat models now have long coding incorporated into the ABS control unit and the re-programming of any...

Hi Guys, I'm a bit new here so bear with me if you can. I've recently had an issue on my mk2 Leon 2.0 TDI with the ESP warning light coming on. I took it to the local SEAT dealer and apparently my ABS Control Unit needs to be replaced at a cost of £1460 inc the fitting!!! Steep i know, i'm...

anyone carried this out on vagcom??? does it work ??details are on the rosstech site!!

Right - Had the ABS light come on a while ago. Used VAG-CAM and got a reading that it was 01276 - ABS pump signal outside specifications. Reset the light a few times, but it definatley was a real fault, not just a random glitch. Went to rosstech wiki which says that it is either the pump or...

Hi, My ABS pump has recently decided to go on the blink. After much searching of the internet I have managed to find a refurbished one. My question is how do you fit it? Im guessing that you drain the brake fluid out of the system, unplug and unbolt the pump and ecu, plug the new one back...
