This saturday I got into my 03 300A MARAUDER and I drove it out of the parking lot and at about 10 miles an hour or less i pressed on the brake and i hear a crunching or grinding noise as if the ABS is engaging. as i drive coming from a speed of about 50 mph i can slow down with no problem and not hear any problems. i took it to my job since i work at a dealership and the technicians looked at it and said that i may have a rear axle problem since they saw some grease leaking back there. Could the rear axle problem and the abs sensor have something to do with eachother? a technician said that fluid could of leaked onto a sensor causing the abs to engage unnecessarily. What do you guys think i researched the forums history and i saw that there is a TSB out on the rear axle of some 03s but im unsure if this will solve my ABS problem.

Could have gotten some fluid on the pads. That would screw up the abs.
