just replaced front discs and pads on the w220.

thuoght i'd repack the wheel bearings while i was in there so i
tapped out the rear seal which is integral to abs ring.

now the brakes work fine but when the car slows to about 8 mph it seems as if the abs is cutting in

any clues guys?

mattkh...sorry that's waaaay beyond me.

fixed my problem though.
looks like i got ham fisted knocking the abs ring back into the hub and bent it VERY slightely.

a new one comes with a new seal and has sorted the low speed abs coming in.

thanks for your interest.
