Abs sensor removal

chrisall69 · Dec 27, 2013

Morning all,
What's the best way to get the abs sensor out, is it just loads of wd40 and pry bar and brute force, think it's about time I got the abs problem sorted.cheers guys

You need PLUSGAS NOT WD40. Use grips gently and try to twist them back and forth to loosen.

WD40 is not a lubricant or a release agent, penetrating fluid - unless you are referring to the Specialist range that WD40 do....they have a dedicated Penetrating Fluid within that range....but the Blue Can WD40 is nothing more than a Water Dispersant!

I squirted plusgas every other day for 2 weeks on my front abs sensor's, and they came out easily when needed. Happy days !

I gave it a good coating earlier tried to release it but it's not going anywhere so will give it another coating every day then try again in a couple of days

You can't beat plusgas - but if you can't get that and have a toolstation nearby their stuff is pretty good - I've used it before. http://www.toolstation.com/shop/Automotive/Lubricants+Sprays/Penetrating+Oil+400ml/d60/sd2795/p62311

WD40 is useless as a penatrating agent whatever the publicity might say to the contrary.

If it was as good as they say, why did they bring out the 'Specialist' Range which includes a Penetrating Fluid??

If standard WD40 was a penetrating oil why would WD company produce this?
