So I can't see one when I pull the ABS sensor out!
I swapped the old ABS sensor out a couple of weeks ago as I suspected it was dead as the last time I looked it had been 'slightly' covered in iron filings and the end had been pushed too near the ring and marked it. When I pulled it out this time it was very badly worn at the end and covered in LOTS of iron filings. I changed the sensor and the ABS light went off for about 5min then came on again...it's only now that I've gone back to it a third time and looked inside the hole to see there's no sign of the ABS sensor ring being there. Putting 2 & 2 together I'm wondering if the iron filings were probably the remnants of the ring as it disintegrated.
I called the stealers and they say it only comes as part of the whole CV joint @ £200.
I then researched on here and found this thread http://www.audi-sport.net/xf/threads/abs-ring-damaged.142369/ which gave me this part No: 443 614 149A
I gave that No to the stealers again who said 'yes, that is an ABS ring but it's not listed for your car, it's for an avant.'
GSF don't hold it but Euro do have one.
1. Does anyone know if the Avant part No will fit the saloon?
2. If not can anyone point me to somewhere the correct part can be bought?
