Severe nose dive, ABS module??
Howdy folks,
Been a lurker here for a while, starting to get a bit more involved.
So, I bought my 2006 Limited V8 last November and noticed SEVERE nosedive when "emergency" breaking. I chalked it up to the leaking front shocks and well-used springs. In January I lifted the truck, replacing all of the shocks and spring. The issue persists.
Basically, at any speed - even at 5 MPH, if I "stomp" the brakes if feels like the front calipers a biting too hard and the rears aren't biting much if at all. Additionally, every now and then my VSC will freak out when making a turn in to a parking lot, especially if there's a bit of a bump or dip mid-turn.
I asked a mechanic friend, he said it could be that the ABS control module is going out. Has anyone had a similar issue or have any other ideas? Frankly I'm hoping for crappy old calipers and maybe a faulty abs/speed sensor. Thoughts??
