Nice one :thumbsup: did it come straight out in one piece? mine did but they can be a pig if they break up.

I got my wheel speed sensor also known as pulse generator from dealers Cotswold Gloucester)for £51.50 delivered.

DONT but the ones of ebay to save a few quid they don't fit....i did and ended up having to get oem from dealers after all :oops:

Yes there is a sensor on each corner, but they dont all do the same thing. Like the nearside rear does the speedo etc :thumbsup:

Nope it was a right pain! Broke apart & I ended up drilling a small hole into the old sensor, putting in a long screw and then pulling it out! :lol:
