ABS & TC lights/hub and bearing kit

Postby strak202 » Sat May 08, 2021 8:10 pm

I've just started getting both ABS & TC lights come on every journey after random lengths of time. After alot of forum dredging I'm going to change the wheel bearing on the most likely candidate (both n/s bearings new and I've had issues with the front o/s hub so going for that one)
My question is this, does anyone know where I can get a hub with the bearing already attached. I've bought one for the rear axle but can't see anything for the front on a 2008 mk7.
Any pointers much appreciated, also, if anyone has any other recent causes for the ABS & TC lights to pop on just before the speedometer stops working, I'd be bloody delighted to hear them!

Speedo is run by the ABS system so check all the ABS sensors, looms and reluctor rings for damage etc...

You'll have more than on abs sensor problem, speedo still works with one abs sensor but when a second fooks speedo stops , could be sensors, broken wires, reluctor ring or a combination of these
