Hello Land rover lovers,
i have just registered on here so happy to meet you all and looking to pick your brains.
i have a 4.6 autobiography,it has been in the body shop for the last 3 years being restord, after bringing her out and flying through the mot she runs as sweet as ever but,it has started with the traction faliure light with the ABS light coming mainly after being on an incline,if i select 4 wheel drive and travel a short distance they go out. they do come back on when parked on an incline in traffic. my land rover garage havent got a clue and want to sell me a new ABS manifold with the sensor in ,i am not convinced of this.
i have read some of the chats on here but would like to see if there has been the same faults from you people.
its allways the traction light first.
thanks Tim.

The error reporting by the abs is quite good and will point to sensors, brake switch and abs pump pressure sensor amongst others.

So, it really is worth checking the codes before throwing parts at it.

Next step would be to check the obvious like loose wheel sensors, poor connections etc.

ABS ECU last, I think.

Brake switch fault or maladjusment will show a ABS fault but NOT a TC fault. Both lamps on is usually low fluid pressure.

Was going to say....it only happens when he parks on a slope....low fluid level maybe!?
