#1: ABS kicking in Author: SDK206, Location: Earth, most of the time!!Posted: Tue Mar 01, 2011 2:02 pm ---- Has anybody noticed on any 206 with ABS, it kick in under light braking just as the car is nearly stationary?? it literally kicks the pedal twice and then stops!!
mine has done this a couple of times in different conditions both dry and wet and at different points on journeys, but not all the time
binding rear drum maybe??

Never had that one yet.
I can emergency brake assist the car to a stop without the abs cutting in at all

It is so quick just as the car is coming to rest its stupid why its happening but i'll check my driveshafts for broken pickup rings
#6: Re: ABS kicking in Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Wed Mar 02, 2011 3:17 pm ---- Mine had a cracked ring on the shaft and at 100mph+ the ABS light would come on and and occasionally when parking it would trigger the ABS.
So up the ramps the car went and this is what I found.
#7: Re: ABS kicking in Author: mdstone, Location: South WalesPosted: Thu Mar 03, 2011 6:49 am ---- Edward - did your ABS light go out after that as mine did not, even though I got a new ring.
#8: Re: ABS kicking in Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Thu Mar 03, 2011 11:59 am ---- After a restart the light would always go off.
#9: Re: ABS kicking in Author: mdstone, Location: South WalesPosted: Fri Mar 04, 2011 8:18 am ---- Maybe my sensor is naffed then, as my fault still comes up but the car is running fine now with a new CV Joint / ABS Ring. The initial problem I had was speedometer intermittently showing incorrect readings and the brakes went a bit d***ky like I was braking on snow.
#10: Re: ABS kicking in Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Fri Mar 04, 2011 9:40 am ---- Does that mean yours is one of the cars that have the speedo operated by an ABS sensor? They don't all work like that.
#11: Re: ABS kicking in Author: mdstone, Location: South WalesPosted: Fri Mar 04, 2011 11:06 am ---- What year/model is yours? - 2003 Gti
#12: Re: ABS kicking in Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Fri Mar 04, 2011 11:38 am ---- Mines an early 2001. Your is multiplexed so will be different.
#13: Re: ABS kicking in Author: Lecktorious, Location: ScotlandPosted: Sun Mar 20, 2011 4:37 pm ---- Can you buy replacement driveshaft rings then Paul? As I've got the same problem now!
#14: Re: ABS kicking in Author: mdstone, Location: South WalesPosted: Mon Mar 21, 2011 6:40 am ---- G. Seen some on Ebay for about £10 recently. I opted for a new CV Joint instead (where the ring is attached) for about £20-£25.
This ring may fit depending on your model/year ABS Ring
