Thread: Defender MY2011

Don't know if this will help Mulgo but I believe the ABS has changed from a Siemens unit to a Bosch one in MY2011 Defenders. While not relevant to your question, the change in ABS unit has the effect of making Traction Control operate across all four wheels at once as opposed to the front and rear TC operating independantly as in earlier Puma Defenders.

you sure they just didn't forget to fit it...I think ABS might be an option in the UK

its with the module under the bonet, hope your not planing on playing with it

Don't want to play with it at all. Just want to know where it is located.

Don't know, but you might be referring to the ECU which is located at the firewall in the engine bay.

Cheers,
Daniel

Thanks Karl for the info. Will be looking for a Bosch unit next time.

Was it a 130? If so they don't come with ABS. Well the MY10 doesn't.

Hi newhue, It was a 110 wagon (mine). It definitely has ABS... somewhere. When compared to the MY10 the MY11 has less components under the drivers seat.
