[s-cars] intermittent ABS pulsing through pedal at complete stop

[Ian Duff]

If I recall correctly, you will need a 2x2 adapter that connects in the relay box under the hood (http://store.ross-tech.com/shop/AF2X2.html <http://store.ross-tech.com/shop/AF2X2.html>) to get VCDS to be able to connect to your urS6.

I have been driving my GF’s 2004 Allroad 6MT a bunch for the last month or so while figuring out my steering rack mount woes, and I will say that I just love the feel of the urS6 so much better…. On every level it seems like the better car for my tastes and has convinced me to continue to fix the car to get it back to DD duty….thanks all for the help in making that happen!

Is that avant a 121 series vehicle known around here as a 95.5 model?  If so, you might get more with a scan for DTCs, especially if you use a VAG-COM (even Lite version) to scan for any codes.  The latest vehicles can even cough up the offending wheel. If it is more than just a sensor needing adjustment, you should also have a caution/warning light.  Maybe the welder disconnected the cable to the drivers front wheel when doing the bracket repair?

>> As I get my car back on the road after the Steering Rack bracket saga (so far so good with new fabricated piece welded in on the frame support under rack) I am uncovering some additional issues.  I replaced each outer CV joint boot within the last couple of days, and noticed recently that I am getting ABS feedback from the brake pedal sometimes when coming to a complete stop….essentially at the end of the braking episode I’ll feel a little vibration through the pedal.  Not every time, about 40-50% of the time.  Going forward and backing up.  No dash lights (brake or ABS) just the pulsing.  No other braking issues, firm pedal and solid stopping power.  Any clues?
