ok,
Looks like i will be needing to replace my rear wheel bearings. All the shops in town only carry the hub+bearing assembly. I have however found a wheel bearing module. It is only the bearing and not the hub and is at a fraction of the cost.... $300 for the assembly and $80 for the module. I haven't taken apart the bearing/hub assembly and am not sure if I will be able to savage the remaining needed parts.... Need some wise info from all you gurus on the best plan of attack without killing my wallet! |

WRONG, when ANY fault is found on the ABS system the whole ABS system is disabled. This is correct. ANY ABS fault detected will disable the entire system. A single tire locking up in a panic braking condition with the others still rolling woudl cause a sudden pull to that side, possibly causing loss of control. --------------------  |
