Well this one has me really bummed. I thought we had solved this problem with brake upgrades. So its an ABS problem after all..

It hasn't happened to me in a while, but quick comment: I remember the first time it happened, it happened fairly quickly. Seemed like there was no warning, however the second time it happened, I felt the brakes gradually get worst and worst and then decided to really get on them when I thought they were about to fail and they did.

What I'm trying to get at is that it gradually built up to the point of failure, rather than being an on/off issue.

Considering that Travis switched his Calipers, rotors, pads, lines and fluid and its still happening AND in my experience it was a gradual failure (please others chime in, gradual or not?).... my first guess would be that it has something to do with heat buildup affecting a sensor in the ABS system.

Thoughts on that theory?
