About a week ago I noticed when starting my Puma that the ABS and TC dash warning lights didn't go out. I checked the handbook and it didn't seem a serious issue, so I thought I'd get pumabuild to check it out as I had my car booked in anyway for other work. Some days they went out, others they stayed on - was random.
On the way to PB this morning, about 20 minutes after leaving I noticed an odd problem when braking. The first time there was a fairly loud mechanical cluck/grinding noise and then on and off when I breaked, the pedal would almost push against me or prevent me breaking fully. I could also hear a quiet motor noise (bit like washer motor noise but not as loud), which came and went every so often.
Pulled over and took a look but couldn't see any problems. Just taken it to a local garage who are looking at it now.
Sounds like the ABS sensor is faulty or something? Is this a common problem on Fords at all? Was a little worrying when driving it back to a garage with dodgy breaks
