Re: ABS Speed sensor Hub whell bearing

The lights back on today but didn't get the sensor fault code 00290, just ABS 03841 & 01316. TPS who are they? what about europarts, are their parts any good? can get the hub off them for a good one about the same £80. I'll get sensor from dealers as copies can cause issues I heard.

Clicking sound from engine bay

Main service abd intrim service

Hi

Do dealers use the same oil on the major service and the intrim service? Do they use the long life oil only on major service and different oil on intrim?
