Follow the directions with the ABS Amigo. If the lights don't shut off there is a problem that needs to be addressed. My brake light and other amigos came on with a hub and sensor that needed to be replaced. The sensor I replaced looked perfect and toned in at a normal amount of resistance. I noticed a pretty big stopping improvement with EBC Rotors and Green Stuff Pads. They look nice, work good and don't give as much dust as the stock or Raybestos pads I've used. They were cheaper and easier to get than DBA. The sensors seem pretty well sealed, I don't know how dust would affect them. Get a #4 Phillips for the rotor set screw. You'll get tired of extracting the ones you tried to get out with a #3. If you decide to replace your hub yourself buy a big *** torque wrench (360 ft lbs). It's an easy job except sometimes you may have to press the axle out of the hub. Loctite, new o ring and stake nut are a good plan also. Land Rovers love attention. I'm trying to think of a good whiny name for mine.

I hope the rotors and pads do the trick. I've got 93k mi on mine and have had to replace both rear and one front hub. The bearing felt like they had a lot of life left in all of them, but something was wrong between the tone ring and sensors.

So, how did it go?

Did they come back after the new pads, rotors, and fluid?
