Sounds very much like a Faulty ABS Sensor, and/or wiring.
But I would get it Scanned, and that should indicate which item maybe faulty.

get it scanned first, so not throwing away money on parts not needed, can be as simple as a battery (VE is power hungry) especially if your trips are all short and battery is old (3yrs or more) to rear loom, rear sensors, front sensors, and being the V6 it can be MAF, throttlebody, etc
when are you getting these messages, and are they staying, engine light coming on?? little more info may help

2nd the suggestion to get it scanned

Highly likely to be a broken ABS sensor loom

I will get it scanned first Thanks. No engine light comes on. Just the ABS LIGHT comes on, then the stability control fault appears this happens when I turn the car on , then when I put it in drive my break shudder, the breaks also shudder when I’m driving. Any advice would be awesome cheers.

Exactly the same thing happened to mine and it was the rear wheel bearing and sensor. I just had to replace the sensor and did the wheel bearings at the same time as they were also worn out (the sensor pick up is the wheel bearing) and it fixed the problem. As others have said, plug it in and find out which sensor is not reading correctly, so you know which one to replace.

OK I had these come on last night, searched these threads only to get answers like common problem, rear wheel sensors ect.
I have had the service light been coming up the last couple of weeks and thought I had cleared it, I have a Bluetooth obd2 connected to the car constantly for the last year so I tried reading the fault codes only to find no fault codes which there is as in the past when reading them Bank 1 and Bank 2 have come up meaning Strech timing chains To cut the story short I thought I would clear the service reset by holding the trip button down, turning the key on then hitting the enter button, turned the car ignition off, then started the car, to my amazement the abs and stability lights have gone and have not come back on, so hope this might help someone with the same problem, I did try clearing the faults before doing this with the obd2 using the torque app but that didn't get rid of the lights.... Cheers

Hi our ve 2010 wagon has the same two consistent lights when key on start up AND we have the horrible shudder (and shudder noise) for at least 2kms and the lights stay on and we'll get a warning bell every now and again with the stability light flashing, abs light is constant. My concern is not the lights, bells and whistles, but what the heck is that shudder?
Sorry if not post etiquette - Should I put this in a new post?
