Re: abs/dsc warning comes on randomly
i'd be looking at the abs sensor first fairly easy to change tbh (if it doesnt break while your pulling it out )

Re: abs/dsc warning comes on randomly
it could also be the battery as they throw up all sorts of errors on these cars? Disconnect it for 30 mins and then reconnect. Full charge overnight ideally with a CTEk (or similar) battery conditioner
Of course it may not be the battery but it is quick and easy to eliminate
How old is your battery - if it is over six years old then replace regardless as it will cause you issues

Doesn't the r/l wheel sensor also cover the speedo and if that is working then the sensor is probably ok and it is the normally at fault ABS module?? worth keeping in mind if a sensor replacement doesn't solve the problem.
