hi guys as above really i changed front discs and pads and all been ok. now today brake pedal started bouncing back at me and i nearnly went into the beck of someone
whats wrong, does it maybe needing bleeding

thats what i thought but why would it when driving normal could it be on its way out

hi guys local mechanic looked at this problem today he said when he test drove it that it felt like the rear was braking harder than the front, and then said he cant find why the abs is playing up, but he said he has disconnected it and feels like the front brakes better than rear now, and said dont plug abs back in and happy days
is this safe he normally is a good mechanic that i have used before but this is just a cowboys answer is it not, please help

see i asked him to bleed system and he said no as thats got nothing to do with the abs playing up

i aint doubting you mate but not sure this mechanic is that good anymore and wont be going back
i shall see if my mate can bleed brakes tomorrow if the dreaded nipples come off ok

yes wat else would i mean
any tips on not snapping them mate

If the pedal is vibrating under your foot, it's the ABS activating. If you're not braking hard enough to lock a wheel and it does it, then I would suggest you're suffering from an incorrect sensor air gap or, more likely, a cracked ABS reluctor ring.

The cracks only have to be hairline to confuse the ABS when counting pulses. Pull the ABS fuse and test the brakes out then, you'll probably find it brakes as it should (to the point of lock-up). You won't pass an MOT with no ABS though so you need to fix it.
