Anyone else think ABS/ESP is hyper sensitive, especially when raised?...
I find that even pulling into my shop with a good 2 inch lip at less than 3 mph makes the ABS kick in like crazy. If raised, it's very easy to make the ABS kick in, steel plates in the road, offsetting sharp angle bumps in the road, even up to 35mph. Happens when applying the brakes or not, but more frequently if the brake pedal is depressed.
Besides cleaning the ABS sensors and rings, any other ideas? I'd love to mount a body camera shooting the front wheels in motion to see how much air the tire really gets over these "bumps". Pulling into my shop should not kick the ABS on as easily as it does. By the way, I have started turning off the ESP to minimize this annoyance. I can't imagine what it would be like off road. It was certainly not easy to drive in the snow with the ABS always working. 2002 AR 2.7T Tip w/82K mi and good pads and rotors all around.
Thanks in advance.
