Default Did it happen while taking a turn?

If so, your brake fluid level is low.

For the rear brake upgrade, check out stasisengingeering.com.

Default If you have a VAG-tool, pull the codes..

I have that right now, and it is a fried right front ABS sensor (wheel speed sensor)

Default Re: nope no turning, just 70 mph down the highway

i'm having the same problem too, except it comes on at various times, sometimes when i start the car, sometimes after 10-15 minutes of driving, i recently had rotors replaced so thought maybe a sensor got knocked out of place... brought it back to them to have a look and got a code reading of 00532, something about a supply voltage? suggested i take it to a dealer, dealer looked at it this AM and just told me they can't get a code reading b/c the entire ABS system is damaged, and it'll cost $1600 to replace it - anyone out there has any thoughts on what I should do????? doesn't make sense that i got a code reading last week and now the whole system is shot?!
