Green96GT Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 I'm losing brake fluid, and it appears that leaking fittings on my ABS pump are to blame. Anyone have a source for a salvaged ABS pump for my car? Thanks in advance. Green96GT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SevenSisters Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 Are you getting a warning light? Does it work? Are these fittings able to be tightened with an 1/8 turn of a flair wrench? ABS pumps are relatively, hell no, very expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green96GT Posted March 16, 2005 Author Share Posted March 16, 2005 No "ABS" light, just a brake light every coupla weeks due to low fluid levels. It's pretty clear that there's a leak at one of the couplings. I tried to tighten the couplings, but they won't budge, and given that the housing appears to be aluminum I don't want to torque down on them too hard, anyway.

TheBrian Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 ABS pumps are relatively, hell no, very expensive.I've heard this before. Just how expensive are we talking? Let me put it this way: ABS adds how much to the cost of a new car?I haven't been able to find ABS pumps in any auto parts stores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

epeeist04 Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 I have a 1995 Legacy and I am having this exact problem. I have been losing brake fluid for a while and couldn't find where it was going. I finally found the leak in the ABS hydraulic unit. It is part number 26731AA200, which I gather is a "2E". I found some online parts but nothing under $900. It seems like there should be a way to fix a leak for less than $900. Anybody have experience with these ABS units? It is hard to tell where the leak is on the unit exactly. I don't think it is from where the lines enter, though. It seems to be from the side or bottom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green96GT Posted April 17, 2005 Author Share Posted April 17, 2005 I replaced the unit with a used one I bought here. It's a simple bolt-on job that took me about 45 minutes, then another 1.5 hrs to bleed all the brake lines. Look for a used unit, and good luck!!
