Hey idk if this is the right section for this but I'm giving it a shot anyways.

So I had my brakes checked out the other day and they said all the pads were in decent shape and nothing looked out of the ordinary. I've been having some trouble with my ABS, low trac, and check tire pressure lights coming on after the engine bogs down a bit. I haven't seen a post addressing all three coming on so I wanted to post and ask if anyone has ran into this before. It seems the pedal goes loose when this happens and sometimes the brakes (i don't know which wheel) makes a squeaking/grinding noise right before it happens. The low trac light comes on and off now either when driving down the road or hitting any sort of bump or uneven surface. I haven't been able to take it to a shop to see if they can get a code from the ABS light because it has always happened after the shops close.

Any ideas on what it could be? The other day it was like the brakes failed for a couple seconds and was kinda scary because I don't want it happening if I'm in rush hour stop and go traffic and the car just doesn't wanna stop all of a sudden.

Sounds to me like you might have a problem with a bad wheel speed sensor. I would suggest taking the car to someone that can read the ABS codes. Anytime the ABS light comes on, there is a code set, much like an engine trouble code. But it takes a special reader (usually a Snap-On Scanner or GM Tech II Scanner) to read the codes. So find someone that has one of them, get the codes scanned and read, and report back so we can help figure this out.

I have the same prob, not so much with the low trac coming on and off though. I want to take it in but have heard its a complete kick in the ass for the pocketbooks, just to have the code read... plus then you g2 more then likely go without a car for a day or so... at least from what i've heard from dealers around yonder. haha

Anybody know if the autotap scanner tool will work for this, or is that more engine related scanning?
