Has anyone changed a front one?
I know there is a You Tube tutorial from a ring company, but I want to know if anyone on this site has done one, and how easy/hard it was.

Re: ABS reluctor ring.
Fantastic. 
Looks like that is a damn cheap way to do it.
But there are 2 sizes. 86mm and 90mm. How will I know which is mine, and are they the same ring no matter which side you want it for?

Re: ABS reluctor ring.
Thanks Jasper, but it doesn't really answer my question as to what size I need to order. I suppose ringing the local dealer might answer it though. 4mm is not a lot of tolerance to get it either right or wrong.
Typical bloody French. They know how to complicate things. Why didn't they just fit one size to the range?

Re: ABS reluctor ring.
You could take off the ring and measure it, it will probably come off easy.
You could fold a piece of string around the cv joint and measure the circumference then work out the diameter from that or fix the string into a circle and measure the diameter.
You could get a pair of calipers and measure the diameter of the cv joint.
You could get a large jubilee clip and screw it onto the cv joint then measure the diameter.

Re: ABS reluctor ring.
This is the easiest way to determine it accurately: 86mm diameter is 270mm circumference, 90mm diameter is just shy of 283mm.jasper5 wrote:You could fold a piece of string around the cv joint and measure the circumference then work out the diameter from that
risky, as jubilee clips aren't perfectly roundYou could get a large jubilee clip and screw it onto the cv joint then measure the diameter.
<steve_earwig> I think this forum is more about keeping our cars going with minimal outlay than giving our cars more reason to go bang
Re: ABS reluctor ring.
Excellent replies guys.
Been busy today putting large ham radio antennas up, so not had chance to do anything car related, but now I have the info, then I'll be on it soon.
