GSF at around half the dealer price, guess at

Stuff GSF into google and you might find their site - or www.gsfcarparts.com ie German Swedish and French, ah just discovered that you are on this side - so that means a trip into "soap dodger" territory (not my words as I'm from that neck of the woods - just embro speak) - or order online if you are 100% sure that they are offering you the correct parts - all web orders are post free (well were some time ago). Some thing goes for ECP - European Car Parts - they are up Turnhouse road along from Marionville Models.

Hi All,
I have had to bring this topic up again as I have not seen anything else even slightly relevant. But as usual I will probably be proven wrong as soon as someone reads this.

I had new bearing hubs (both front) fitted about 9 months ago and new discs and pads on front too.
about 6 weeks ago I had all the ABS, Traction, Engine management & steering lights come up on the Dash.

Fortunately the Steering and engine man cleared after about 1 hour and were never seen again but the ABS & TC stayed.

so changed the sensors on front. changed the ECU as well. because this was what the scans where saying. But no, not cleared.

In the end I had the Bearing hubs changed out under warranty and it was found that the front nearside bearing had come apart by about 1.5 - 2mm causing the Disc to shift outwards and rub on the Carrier.

This was just enough for the magnets within the hub to not be registered on the sensor outside. Hence the Light on.

 

However since all this was changed out my TC does not work. button doesn't do anything and I spin up very easily in this damp weather at present.

 

Any ideas as there is nothing else to change on the car except the wiring loom.

Help needed.

 

thanks

Neil

You said that you changed the sensors and the ECU, if that was the ABS ECU, was the correct part number fitted as a replacement and was it coded to be the same as the original one?

I wonder if they used the right tooling to fit the warranty bearings, cos it sounds possible that they didn't with the first ones.
