Has anyone failed one yet for no effort at NSF  wheel ?  I've done 3 in as many months

Not so far... but there's a nagging thought rattling round in my head about ABS pumps - sure I've seen this before but it wasn't at MOT time.

Did one last week, you could push the caliper piston back in very easily but both feet on brake pedal would not push it back out.

Customer had a slight accident when she braked hard and it swerved across the road into oncoming traffic. Could have been a lot worse. Disc was corroded, so brake had not worked for a long while.

Actronics repaired for £162 plus carriage plus vat.

We have managed to rescue 4 of the 5 Corsa D models with this ABS pump problem over the last 18 months, in each case it involved opening the restricted outlet of the ABS pump and activating the ABS by driving and braking hard . ( obviously in controlled conditions ) The blockage when it pops is a white waxy substance similar in appearance to the grease found in the master cylinder body.

been failing em for near 8 yrs now,abs unit.almost every time its n/sf,in about a 100 now ive failed 1 on o/s/f and another on o/s/r.vauxhall will tell you it aint a fault and its cos the fluid aint been changed,largely speaking-utter bollox,1st one I saw was 3 1/2 yr old,5k,full history and hed been going back to the dealer almost from new complaining about it fooking off to the right(80 yr old dodderer)and strangely enuff they diagnosed it immediately i sent it back cos its then outta warranty aint it!theres firms online do recon/exchange decoded plug and play about 120 quid.strangely enuff ive yet to actually have to fit one age range seems to 08-13 and most(but not all)sub 30k.if you wanna check it for yourself go back thru the hydraulic circuit loosening as you go,youll make it to the abs unit with still no pressure but the master will have.to make it worse on some it comes and goes in duration and severity.

We've done five or six in the last few years, always had the unit stripped and rebuilt by ecu testing.
