One of my co-workers has a SC Thunderbird 1990, and took it to shop to have work done, rear brakes, and immediately after, they were told ABS unit was out. On my Typhoon (and Syclones) it is known by BB owners that if you change the brakes, and do not crack the bleeder screw, you basically compress the pistons, pushing the dirty fluid back up through ABS unit, and using the ABS Unit as an expensive filter, and this has been known to damage the unit.
Do you know if this is a known issue with the SC T-Birds too? I'm here in SoCal, and my co-worker is too, but is apalled by the $1300 price that the mechanic is wanting for the new unit. I know on our BB, Syty.net, I've been able to find good deals from other members, and wanted to point my co-worker in the right direction to team up with other KNOWLEDGEABLE owners.
Anyone that can help, please drop me an email, or reply to this post.
Thanks in advance,
