    My ABS doesn't work since fitting 4 pot calipers and bigger discs has anyone else with different brakes to standard had the same problem?
    (no faults showing with the ABS system)

    hey Dave, does it help if I say "no"?

    Something I checked with the garage before I drove off, along the lines of "simple question, the ABS still works right?"

    No warnings and have done a manual test as well, still works.

        What is making you think it doesn't work properly? It will be slightly affected I think by the change in brake performance from stock.

          The front left locks up under very hard braking but the ABS doesn't kick in

              Seems a bit strange, normally light would be on with a fault (or at a least a sensor fault).

                Dave common fault on BMW`s iirc its an airlock in the pump which causes a sticky valve

                a tap with a rubber mallet sometimes cures it

                        Nice, the same as I on the front, once I fit them, trusting the brackets from Creation Motorsport fit this time.
