Question I have a 2000 BMW 735iL which has done 161000KMs, the problem is that the steering shakes when I press on the brake paddle deeply and the ABS light shows on the dashboard after that
Answer You may have to replace or resurface your rotors.Checking the pads and rotors to see if they or how much they are worn and the correct tire size will affect the ABS as well.A scan tool will help diagnose the problem as well ,a code will be given then you can follow the steps for that repair needed.
