stuarttaylor37 13 Posted December 16, 2014 I need to replace both front sensors according to a garage who read the codes for me. Looking for replacements on Ebay I can see quite a variation in price, some febi are listed at £30 each down to unnamed at about £8 a side Is there any difference other than price? anyone used the cheaper ones? stu Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seanl82 23 Posted December 17, 2014 Or a VW original at twice that price again! I try to get genuine whenever it's possible to not have my pants pulled down, but in this case I'd get a branded one. I just got a febi rear for £30 and I'd advise getting one of them. Fitment is perfect and it should at least last a while rather than a cheep copy.

Chuggs1 10 Posted December 18, 2014 My ABS light keeps coming on every now and then Most its off but its been on twice) - (brakes feel fine) could this be a sensor problem - is this a common fault? Will get it checked out after Christmas - haven't got time before then! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seanl82 23 Posted December 18, 2014 It's the most common problem. If you have a multi meter, check resistance at each connector which will tell you if it at fault. Intermittent problems though are better checked using vagcom if you can. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mbradbrook 0 Posted December 18, 2014 Hi there, I had a sensor go on my vr6 and used the Meyle sensor from vwspares.co.uk for £12.60 each. Sorted my car and have been fine for 4 years. Cheers Matt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
