Default Help Needed with Braking Problem....PLEASE!!!

Hello

I am having a problem with my braking. It seems as if my ABS kicks in right before I come to a stop causing a immediate stop, jerking me forward. I can also hear what appears to me as a ABS self check with a buzzing sound. I have ran VAG-COM, and there are no error codes besides my O2 sensor and no lights on the dashboard either. The speed sensors have been cleaned throughly. This problem is very annoying and any support that can be given to me about this would be extremely appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Try cleaning your ABS sensors.

Default Re: Try cleaning your ABS sensors.

Are they different from the speed sensors? And where are the ABS sensors located? Thanks a lot for you help

Default They are the speed sensors. Location varies from vehicle.

They're usually mount just behind the rotors.

Default Did you figure out this problem?

Right before I stop, my abs starts firing and really annoys me. how did you clean them? Do you think it is your ABS Controller? Heard they have problems.

Default No. Sadly No.

NO! Unfortunately not! I cleaned the speed sensors by taking the tires off and cleaning the little sensor things in there. I have already replaced the ABS control module and I had take it to audi for them to "program" it, but that didnt help the problem. What about you? Any luck? I am so sick and tired of this problem, if ANYONE knows ANYTHING about it, please let me know. I would appreciate it. Thanks
