Thanks Jim, thanks Phil; cleaned and reset the sensors again, just in case, 'chisel' side perfectly parallel as it was,
still same problem. Sensor clearance now is 1 mm, previous was 1.5 mm, and ABS noise that starts after initial
engagement, stays on now for longer than before, so there is a difference. BTW, what should be sensor-CV required
distance, and of course, any more ideas?

Regards,

Ado Sigal
