Brakes abs??

I have a 2000 acura tl with 47,000 miles on it.

I have a problem when a brake normally the car stops fine, but when have to slam the brakes onand when abs engages the front brakes grab but the rear brakes seem to want to grab and the rear of the car shakes alittle. Like the rear brakes don't grab fully.

Has anyone ever experienced this and what are you guesses might be the problem.

Thanks

could be calipers need rebuilt or replacing or just needs to be flushed well. i'd start with a good flush (in the proper order) first to see if it solves the problem.

have the calipers tested to see how much pressure is coming from each caliper when you step on the brakes. that will determine if you have a seized caliper.. a flush always helps. i flush my brakes every brake job.

Sounds like calipers not working properly in the rear.

I did a brake fluid flush and that solved the problem.
