So, today we got the first snowfall that actually stayed on the ground for more than a second. Any ways, at every intersection there was alot of packed down snow witch froze over witch turned to some nice slippery ice. Any ways, i remember this from last year, but didnt pay to much attention to it, but pretty much if i hit the brakes more than 1/4 of the way down, my ABS kicks on. Not a big fan and i dont wanna disconnect the ABS, so i was wondering what would be causing the ABS to kick in so early?? could it be pads, rotors, the actuall abs sensors? personaly its just becoming a pain in the ass for me and i dont wanna deal with it all season long.

I know you seem convinced somethings wrong but
"im going 40km/h and lightly touch the brakes" If you are on ice or wet slush, yes they will! Just dealt with a decent storm on teh west coast and when everything froze, ABS was on 95% of the time. -------------------- ----- '94 ST hatch --- Yellow ----- |
