sounds like a abs sensor.
best look to see if you have sensors on the wheels,then thatll show you have abs.
if you have a skidding car symbol,then yes it has abs and esp. so deffo one the sensors has gone down. :)

Odd that. Everywhere you look says your car won't have ABS. You'll soon see though when you get a front wheel off. I should get yourself a Haynes manual if you don't already have one. Hope you've got some decent tools.
Careful when you jack it up! Be safe!!!

many thanks for your kind answers,i was begining to think i had missed part of my queery out when i posted it.
I will whip off a front wheel and have a look after i go and get some axle stands asi have a scissor jack and i dont trust it.
Hopefully i can take the wheel and hub apart and see if i have sensors.
Many thanks edwinwrg
