Default Brake pull

I have a 2000 ws6 and about 4 or 5 months ago my ABS light came on. Fast forward to last week and I did the CTS-V 4 pot conversion. The brakes have always pulled to the left, but with the upgrade it has made it that much more noticeable. I cannot figure out why my ABS light is on and if the brake pull is related to the light. Any help is appreciated, thanks.

sounds like you could have some blockage on your right brake. could be a kink in the hoses or lines, or you could have some blockage inside your ABS unit. If all your brake lines look good, how long has it been since you have done a full brake fluid flush?

I'd do a flush first if I were you. Also make sure your brake booster does not suck up any air.

You should figure this out first by scanning the ABS system. You'll need access to a scanner that can get the ABS codes, of course. Sometimes local parts stores will offer this for free and other times, they wont have the necessary scanner I some areas.
