Owner reviews for ABS sensor

I bought a wells one off rock auto for my 91 ranger and it worked fine. Looks identical to the original part as well

My Cayenne did go into limp mode once after an abs sensor went bad on a rear wheel. Apart from that it’s been solid. Change the oil every 6k miles with quality synthetic, spark plugs and coils every 30k.

Using Vcds and advice from Ross-Tech, the judgement was the RR abs sensor wasn’t working- cheap and easy fix to try first. I ordered a Bosch, made in Germany , cost was about US$35-40, part number 0986594560, got it from Amazon. While waiting for the part, the 7 lights would go away and come back, my cruise control would kick off. I replaced the sensor in my daughter’s driveway, had to buy a couple of tools, and all the lights went away. I returned home from Ottawa yesterday, 1552kms in 14 hours, including stops. Car worked flawlessly, got 900kms on a tank of 87 octane.

Just replaced the front right hand abs sensor on mine, and thought I'd make a quick guide for everybody.

Sensor is around $35 and isn't very hard to change yourself. After you unhook the connector, it takes a metric allen wrench (don't recall the size) to remove it.

All I’m gonna say is before I replaced one of the faulty ABS sensors, the auto stop feature never activated for me…

Daughter just called the shop, and they said they did also have to replace the ABs sensor; and that it alone was about $150. OK, that's the MSRP for a "Genuine VW/Audi" sensor.

I am looking for some advice or experience to which brand to choose to replace the rear ABS sensor. The one I removed from each side was ATE brand. I am looking at replacing this part with either Febi or Meyle but I am open to other brands.

Damn OEM rear wheel speed sensors (ABS sensor) are over $120 each from BMW. Aftermarket ones are $25 to $45.

Rear left ABS sensor on the BMW E39. This fucker controls the speedometer and when it fails you're suddenly playing a guessing game at how fast you're going.
