I had the car with the mechanic recently having some work done. among the things done was a new CV Boot on the drivers side. from it was installed when ever i press the brake pedal as i am slowing i can feel the ABS kick in. it only really happens as i am rolling to a stop. the mechanic had it back and hooked it to the computer and said there were no errors and it will settle down. i believe there is an ABS ring on the CV boot. could it be because this is new that it is triggering the ABS.

Any Thoughts?

Cheers.

 

first thing i would do is check the basics, tire pressures, confirm all your wheel speed sensors are accurate, bleed your brakes and go from there. Yes the speed sensors are driven off a ring on the halfshaft.

 

your mechanic messed up the abs sensor on the hub of the changed boot. it could just be a loose harness. it could also be a dirty abs sensor that just happened to start messing with you after the boot change. i have the same problem but mine started after i changed my caliper. it's too cold to properly fix my problem so i just pulled the abs system fuse lol.

 

Would a faulty or dirty ABS sensor not have shown up when he ran the diagnostics on the computer?
