ABS going nutzo...

Chaincat · 06-01-2000, 01:30 AM

Here's the deal, I can feel my ABS almost all of the time. When I've been parked at a stop light, when I slow down from 55 to 45 (and I KNOW the wheels aren't locking up). It pretty much doesn't matter what the situation is, if I'm on my brake AT ALL I can feel it. I can also feel the clutch "buzz" at the same frequency. I'm guessing that is either from some kind of sympathetic vibration or the brakes and clutch share hyraulic fluid in the master cylinder. I don't know if I have a dirty sensor or what but can anyone suggest a cause? I am taking the car in to get it looked at this week but I'm curious if my problem is unique and if anyone knows wtf (what the funk) is going on. Thanks,

-Brian

Hmm I've been noticing my brakes are way down. I have to push them almost to the floor to get some pressure going on. Don't know if it's normal, I'm gonna check them later anyway and depending on what I see, I'll take it to the dealer. It's still brand new, almost 400 miles

And damn that *clunk* shifting sound is LOUD
