    ABS overzealous?

    My ABS has gone out of wack, whenever I brake it sometimes will engage way too soon, like halfway through brake pedal limit (when wheels are not even locked up). It also engages at under 2mph, just buzzes the pedal when you are coasting around in parking lots.

    You could try cleaning the sensors and the toothed wheels. There is a slim chance that might help. After that the cause will be one or more bad sensors or a bad ABS module.
    The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.

      This actually happened to me once. There was a bunch of sludge on the teeth. One scrubdown later and it was ok.
