    Default ABS cutting in when stopping

    Hey Guys.

    I'm throwing the car on stands tomorrow once I've finished work to find out but in the mean time (and for future help to others).

    When I slow down to stop at the lights, what feels like the abs kicks in and pushes the pedal back at 20km/h and the car kind of vibrates then goes back to normal at 10km/h.

    I've just put a new diff in and I think maybe the ABS sensors have become dislodged from their clips perhaps? In turn giving dodgy readings?

    Has anyone had this happen?

    PS: The ABS light doesnt come on in this case above ^ , but if i turn sharply while going very slow it turns the abs off and the abs light and trac off light comes on (until the car it turned off).

    Check your ABS sensor air gaps - they need to be between 0.4 to 1.5mm.
