    ABS Coming on at slow speeds W126 500SE

    Hi All, I've got a problem on my W126. I've just had the bearing changed on the front left wheel and since I got it back from the garage, the ABS keeps activating at slow speeds. Just as I come to a complete stop, it turns on and makes the (drrrrrrr) noise and shakes the pedal. It's...
