Hello Everyone!


I changed out the left front rotor and pads for both of the front wheels. Since then, the brakes pulsate when stopping and of course the ABS light is on. The brakes only pulsate one time (the first time I hit the brakes after it has been started). After that, there is no more pulsating, but the light remains on. Any suggestions?

You should always replace BOTH rotors on an axle at the same time.
That vibration can be due to the difference in thickness of the front rotors.

Did you change the sensor too? Not that it is a part of the problem, but you should always change out the sensor too, just as a CYA move.
