Make sure of that and don't spend all your money at the same place buddy.

Luck with the leak
are you sure about that mate?
not an expert, but i assume the ABS comes in action only when the brake is applied.

Although the actual ABS system is only noticeable when you apply the brakes, that does not mean it does nothing the rest of the time. For instance, how do you think it knows at what rate to unapply and reapply the brakes? It registers what speed you are traveling at and does some crazy equations in fractions of seconds.

A lot more happens under the scenes :P
