1 Air Brake Abs Warning Light problem

Failure Date: 04/20/2005

Abs computer module failure. On the instrument panel, the abs light came on whle the brake light was flashing and beeping. Took it ot the dealer and the abs pump with controller was/is bad. The part with labor is $1600. 00. After some research, this part goes bad alot and is a major safty issue. If you brake hard the rear wheels will lock up and the car could spin out of control.

2 Air Brake Abs Warning Light problem

Failure Date: 04/03/2005

Abs failure on 2000 S4 with only 60,000 miles. The abs failure light comes on randomly while driving. I had this problem checked out with a certified Audi mechanic. He states the actual pump is not the problem, but the circuitry that controls the pump is defective, and also states this problem is very common in my model vehicle. Abs failures should be considered as dangerous as a broken seat belt, and should be repaired at the cost of the manufacturer (Audi).
