Hello Nairalanders,

I have a Toyota Corolla 2008 model. Been using this vehicle for over 7months now. Last month, i noticed the brake wasnt as sharp as it used to be so i contacted my mechanic who later said i needed to change the brake pads and all. A week after, i noticed the same problem and informed him about it and he came to fix it up as usual.

One particular saturday, i was about to embark on a long journey but decided to go to the car wash before hitting the road. After washing the vehicle, on my way to my place , i noticed the brake was almost gone, as in totally flat. I had to manage the vehicle to drive to a secured location off the main road.

I called my mechanic and he said the brake is totally gone that i needed to change it and all. He later went to Ladipo to check for what to change only for him to tell me that the ABS costs 150k.

Hello forumites, please does the cost of ABS for corolla cost that much?

Funny kazeem mechanics.... my brother den go kill u finish...

New OEM abs modules with all the peripherals can be up to that.To buy new oem parts ,U need a professional to help you assess what you are buying or you go to eBay to place your order.

Is your Abs light illuminated on your cluste? Sounds like an Abs pump problem. Abs pump can cost as far as 800k depending on the ride. @ op I advice you run a scan on your abs module and this would allow your mechanic see more clearly instead of working blindly. Lastly does the brake pedal tap when you try to depress the brake
