Question
Why do ABS hydraulic units fail in high-mileage SUVs?
Answer
Internal valve wear and fluid contamination cause pressure leaks.
Explain
High-mileage SUVs (150k+ miles) have worn ABS valves. CHEPQ pressure testers measure leak-down rate (>10psi/min indicates failure), and fluid analysis detects metal particles—replacing the hydraulic unit and flushing the brake system restores ABS performance.
