#1 of 2 Clunk When Slowing to a Stop by sheldonk

Sep 04, 2011 (10:08 pm)

I had an on going issue with a clunk and occaisonal grinding when slowing to a stop while braking. It took a full year and a half and I have finally found a service manager willing to take the time to diagnose and fix the issue...until a light came on.
 
They replaced the wheel speed senor due to the ABS light coming on but the issue persisted after it was replaced. After 3 days of taking everything apart they determined that there was some "slag" in the wheel speed senor causing the issue. It has been 3 weeks without the clunking...finally. I thought other might appreciate the info so they don't have to go through the same ordeal.
