Default Brake bt: So lately, when I 1st take off after the car has been siting, I go to apply the brake and

i get that "ABS" feeling the whole way down while i push the pedal. That vibration. It goes away after the 1st good brakeing. WTH could it be? ABS shot? After that, the ABS and BRAKE light stay on.

Default Judging from your Sig, your wheels are clearly out of round. . .

. . . and after the first good brakeing you just get used to it. As for the light, I havent the foggiest.

Default Check the fluid level...

Maybe a little low and you have to pump the brakes the first time.

Default Jackass.

It is because you have a bad wheel speed sensor and your abs is kicking in.

Or maybe not, but I do have a VAG-COM.
