No kinking. I use zip ties to attach the calipers out of the way until I put everything back together.

No. But I did have to use it a couple times when this happened.

I've had a hissing sound and thought I had a raditor/hose leak. Turned out it was air escaping from the head light.

It is definitely a problem with the ABS, that will also set the TCS light. Check the wires to the wheel speed senosrs, when you zip tied the calipers back you may have pulled one of the wheel speed sensors wires out of place. I doubt its a broken tone ring or the problem would have been there before the brake replacement. |

I had a Nissan Maxima with a similar problem. The problem was associated with the ABS system. At slow speeds, when applying the brake the ABS system would kick in because the speed sensor thought the brakes were locking up....dirt on the lense of the sensor, I guess. Maxima problem and design issue but zero recalls. The friendly people as Nissan would fix the problem for 4000 bucks. Anyway the cleaning the sensor lense would help the issue but would not eliminate it. If it goes on a long time, you will screw up other components that you don't want to replace. At least not in this lifetime.

You are haivng problems with your speed sensor. Either when replace that stuff you messed it up or some vehicles require that sensor to be realigned when the rotors are replaced.
You will have to take it to a pro.

Exoter should be along shortly to reprimand you for being a cheap bastard.

Thanks for all the input. Looks like the sensor and/or the tone wheel are common issues with this vehicle. I have my mechanic scheduled to look at it tomorrow.

So I'm reusing this thread to ask a question about a car I'm looking at buying. It's a 2009 Subaru Forrester 2.5T (turbo) with 29K miles. Now, I was about ready to start talking numbers when the manager comes out and show me the carfax that says:
Frontend collision Airbag deployed Engine replaced Possible structural damage He also shows me a report from another service (Carcheck maybe?) that says nothing has happened to it. The title is clean, so its not salvaged. So I have several questions. 1. Is it possible for a car to have been totaled by an insurance company and still have a clean title? 2. How much does it usually cost to have a body shop check a car for structural damage? I mean, for the engine to have been replaced and the airbag to deploy, it had to be a fairly serious accident, no? |
