Was his a non abs model?

No he has ABS. He were driving around a while without putting miles on his clock!

Lol sounds the same. I thought the abs models read the speed from the abs sensor?

i changed the sensor cleared the fault code and all seemed fine for a week or two then all of a sudden the ABS ad ASR light came back on so i plugged vcds back in and came up with the same fault as before? cause it be loose wiring or somthing thats not being cleaned properly?

Did you clean the Reluctor Rings with a cotton bud dipped Meths, if not then they may need doing.

Fronts, put the steering on full lock, working from the front of the car you should be able to see the shiny part of the Ring at the back of the hub, rotate and clean as you go.

Rears, remove the brake drums and clean the Rings.

Maybe worth cleaning the Sensor Faces while the drums are off.

For mine im suspecting wiring as I have done both sensors along with replacing both hubs. I have traced the wiring upto the bulk head but not removed the scuttle yet. Will be doing one night this week. I will let you know my findings though mate.
