740 braking problem 700


Hi Everyone,

My '89 740 16 V with ABS has developed a problem in which it doesn't stop very well when I apply the brakes. The master cylinder is new. I also bench bled it first and used ATE Dot 4 fluid. There's plenty of pedal pressure, but the car just doesn't stop like it should. There's also a noticable pulsation at lower speeds in the brake pedal. I'm thinking it could be a problem with the ABS pump. The rotors/ pads are good. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks!
Dave
