ABS-CLUNKING
Hi guys
In the process of getting the impreza back on the road and for an MOT.
New brakes all round, just replacement no sports parts.
Fitted rear handbrake shoes,pads discs.
I have fitted the wheels and dropped it down and i have abs light showin, I will check the abs tone ring and sensors next....could it be anything else.
It turned the steering to full lock and had a bloody huge clunk, that i could feel through the drive shaft, would this be down to the abs as i was not there before.
I was thinking it may be a damaged cj voint but there would be no reason it would of failed whilst being stood for a year as its all greased and covered with a boot.
Any ideas guys...help ha ha

Subaru and ABS,these two things never work perfect...
I have same problem and this has been ABS sensor,but you can have look for ABS Tone ring,if its not broken or just dirty,this maybe happen to yours,just check everything is clean(sensors or rings)

Would this make a loud clunking whislt turning the steering?, thats the bit i dont understand, We have changed a bust tone ring in the past and it didnt clunk like this.

abs sensor wont give a clunk,it could be brakes or suspension settling down but i think i would check the corner noise came from as somethings not quite right
