brake problem

[blabla]

Hi guys,

I am having some issues with my brakes, i am getting pedal feedback just before the car comes to a complete stop but it depends on how hard i push the brake pedal. I had the drive shafts changed could it be the abs ring on the shafts?

[blabla]

Anyone?

there might be a problem with your abs unit. Mine had a simular problem. When i braked hard, there used a be a slight jerk so i had the unit replaced and now my car brakes fine. But don't take my word for it. Just a suggestion =D

Anyone else?

Hello ozhonda.... can i get some help

Does the pedal feel spongey? Have you tried bleeding your brake fluid? Topping it up? Have you checked elsewhere like brake lines for any signs of leakage? Proportional valve may be faulty? Try to inspect/fixed whatever I said or maybe more depends who will reply, but when I was in the same position as you, I bled the brake fluids and it fixed the problem.
These are minor problems,

You may also have bigger problems if the above isn't your solution; such as master brake cylinder? Brake booster?
Give it a go and update us :)

Have you also checked you brake pads/shoes?

Good luck!

Ye I did bleed the brakes when changed the rear brakes from drums to disc. Pedal did feel soft but got harder after more driving.. the bottom bracket was loose i tightened it up and still doing the same thing. The master cylinder and brake booster are the same as the ek's that have discs.. the prop valve is the same as the ek's that have discs..

This did ever happened before?? Mauybe you should try using the correct brakes set up Front disc and Rear drums? Don't take my word for it but that could be a problem... Have you checked front brake pads? Tbh I'm just assuming you have air in the system :s

who replaced the driveshafts ?
that might be a problem,

how did you bleed the brakes?
from rear to front?

how's the booster?
check the rod from master adjustment if it has one

[blabla]

Im going to fix the original drive shafts to see if it helps coz I'm also getting wheel wobble. So ye bleed from rear to front. Never had any problrms with brake booster or mc.

[na-118]

why didnt you get your previous driveshafts rebuilt?

[blabla]

Wanted new shafts.

[na-118]

was there any reason, was it in an accident?

[blabla]

The metal around the inner cv joint had a bit of the metal briken and the other had water damage from the split boot cover

[blabla]

if you're worried about it take it to a mechanic

Its something to do with abs because the light has started to turn on.

[Benson]

Remove the ABS sensor off the hub. Take it for a drive.

And if clears up the prblem what would it be the abs unit?
