      problem from greece

      hi guys
      my name is stergios and sorry for my english
      my problem is abs
      i have a chevrolet aveo 2006
      when i push brake abs seems very ineffective
      the car dont stop,i push it hard when i m going with 30klm and it push my leg behind
      the noise hearing like this <<trr,trr.trr.trr.trr>>and its very loud and as i said the car dont stop, just goes on and this is very risk
      but at the large speeds (100-120klm) it is warking good,the car stop good
      i talk to 3 workshop and they cand find the error
      is anybody know a way to fix it or to replace it ?
      thank you

      abs doesn't make the car stop better, it only keeps the car from going into a slide from locking the brakes.

      what kind of brake pads did you buy? you might have chosen something that needs "warmed up" to be effective.

      Did the problem start after you got the new brakes, or has it always done this?

      Is this your first car with ABS? (A lot of people I have talked to do not like ABS when they first experience it.)

      On the issue of stopping distance: do you have access to another similar weight vehicle (also with ABS) that you can compare it to, to see if the stopping distance is actually worse?

      no my friend i have not drive similar car to make the compare and now you saying this i remember that one day i was talking with a friend owned a suzuki swift 2007 ,he have the same problem but when he change brake pads the problem disappear for 2-3 months.i wonder if the aveo owners are contentedly from their abs in low speeds.

      try pulling your abs fuse and see if it "improves" your braking. My aveo does not have abs.
