[s-cars] ABS Problems

[Curtis Asplund]

I've had the ABS light on for some time.  It has been intermittent, often off during the colder days of winter but now on 95% of the time.  I thought it might have been dirty sensors themselves. My mechanic has diagnosed this as the ABS pump Control Module (part# 4D0 642 111) with a part having superceeded that with the same number plus a "D" after it.

Audi replacement cost is substantial.  I have lurked on this list for many years but can't think of this as ever having been something I have read as an issue.

Are there any other things that could be checked?  Is this a part that could be replaced with a used part or would that be throwing good money after bad?

Anyone out there have a car that you're parting out that would have one available?

Any help would be appreciated.
