Curious, can anything go wrong in the process of just bleeding the ABS?
While my recent experience is with my 96 RL, I believe the question is also relevant to the NSX as well (though this has not happened to my NSX yet).
After the bleed done at the dealer about a week ago as part of 90K full service maintenance, the first few days after the bleed the ABS motor/pump kept activating itself under normal driving about every 5-10 minutes! It never used to do this. At one time the light came on and stayed on but once the engine was turned off and on again, it was back to normal. Yesterday morning after starting the car, the ABS motor kept going strong for about 15 seconds then it settled; hadn't done this before - and I know the difference from my NSX between regular activation vs. this particularly strong and lengthy one.
I have engaged the ABS several times and it seems to work though the light is not coming on when forced. I have an appointment with the dealer tomorrow. They think it is due to old age and are hinting that might be time to replace it! Would another attempt to bleed it help; could some vacuum gotten into the system? TIA.
