Suspension / abs coming on under normal conditions

« on: February 02, 2009, 08:00:09 PM »

my abs has been coming on under any condition. but only when the car came to a complete stop at the very last second. at first i thought that maybe it was to cold and that the tires were to hard causing them to slip but today it was 50 degrees and dry and the abs was working whenever i came to a complete stop.

my car has done this for a while and now im going to fix, but do i need to replace the sprokets and chain or should the tensioner be enough because it has been like this for a while

my engine has all the symptoms of a bad chain tensioner, now that i know i will replace because i have been wondering why it was making so much noise on start up

it has done this for a while will a bad tensioner do any damage to the chains or sprokets or will it just break them

should i replace all the sprokets and chains or will a tensioner solve the problem
