BMW 318i ABS (1992)

Periproct 28 April 2005 02:44:03
 
My sexy new Sat Nav takes the speed pulse from the ECU to tell it your
speed. Unfortunately my ECI doesn't seem to send pulses at low speed and the
Sat Nav appears to rely on that more than the GPS. I'm not just bing picky
because at low speeds in traffic you can be way past the turning you want
before the Sat Nav catches up with where it is.

I know add-on speed pulse generators are available for £100+ but one I found
says it magnetises the steel bands in your tyre. Sounds slightly iffy to me.
I thought a more reliable way might be to add an ABS sensor to one wheel.

The manual says the 'reluctor rings' are pressed on the rear driveshaft and
need a whole new driveshaft to renew them. The front ones, it says, are
fitted onto the rear of the front hub and the sensor bolts onto the steering
knuckle which sounds like it could be an easy job.

Ay of you fine people know if my cunning plan is possible/ easy job?

Regards, Nige
