Brake fade after ABS activated.

Featured Replies

Hi.

I'm used to driving cars with no ABS still and having to manage any skids the manual way.

Couple of cars had to do a emergency stop with me in the fabia so slammed the brakes on and everything was ok until the wheels slipped.

I then released the brakes slightly automatically without thinking and tried to reapply. When trying to reapply the brakes I had what felt like 50% braking power and almost coasted into the back of the car in front.

Coming home I had no one behind me and tried the brakes again leaving the ABS to do the work and all was ok.

Could this be a glitch in the computer that if you release the brake after wheel slip it has a moment?

Brake fade from the standard pads after slamming on hard, then once cooked down they were fine again.
