    Replacement parts

    Busy with the refurb of my rear suspension and brakes- currently trying to track down some replacement parts for:
    1. Rear wheel bearings- 1995 ABY Coupe
    2. ABS sensors for 1995 ABY coupe

    Any easy to come by compatible parts around?

    Thanks
    Sean

    Got the bearings from quattro corner, wasn't expensive but forgot the price.

    For the abs sensors I got fuel parts AB1172 but still having abs issues, not sure what the problem is so can't really say that the part is 100% compatible.

      Ryan, the distance between the ABS ring and sensor is very critical. If it's too far off it will cause issues.

        Thanks gents- battling to get the correct replacement/compatible part for the ABS.

        Anyone use ABS sensors from a B5 quattro or similar year VAG vehicle?

          Yep that's definitely where we mucked it up, still haven't had time to get it sorted but getting used to driving without ABS the past two months

            Anyone know where I can get a repair/refurb kit for the standard rear calipers from?
            Want to strip them down for proper powder coating before refurbing them.

              Brakes international in Rochdale do rear refurb kits, search under 90 quattro 20v, its the same, they also do replacement pistons or alternativly Paul at CAC.
              Used brakes international several times, good service but only bought stainless silencer off Paul but assume his postal service for refurb kits would be OK.

              Have you tried 2nd hand sensors from Audibits2 on ebay, I've purchased good used ones for around £15 a piece from him and never had any issues with them all the ones I've fitted have worked OK.
