Re: Re: ABS activating at <5mph

["James M. Dean" <aes@mhv.net>]

I started experiencing this same type of ABS actuation on my 90 V8Q
after I had the front left wheel bearing replaced. The consensus was
that the sensor was probably misaligned during this. I understand that
the sensor alignment requires a special tool. I'm trying out one of the
recommended Audi list mechanics for this job and replacement of my power
steering rack which blew on me last week. I'll let you know how it turns
out.
