Hi everyone,
Just got back from doing the Border Track (Vic-SA border) and have an issue as a result of being stuck in a large mud hole and having to be winched out backwards by a mate.
Anyway... on the way home from Bordertown to Adelaide. I was about 20 kms from home and when I turned a corner, i got this bad sound coming from the front (maybe) and the ABS light is on. The "bad" sound, sound like the ABS kicking in really fast over and over and i get a shudder through the steering not through the brakes. The brakes still work okay but they need pumping up, ie pedal is very low on first 2 pumps then it gets better. Breaks work fine.
Is this a fluid leak? ABS box in engine bay seems fine ie. no leaks.
Strange thing is car was fine most of the way home and didnt stuff up until the end.
I have just spent 2 hours pressure cleaning everything and light is still on. Am yet to take for a drive though to see if there is still a bad sound.
Any ideas?
Cheers.
