There is a possibility that the wiring to the sensor through the body is a problem.
All that aside, the car does look great, despite the incident.

My Widebody Passat Biturbo B5
Hey!
Here is my 1998 Passat B5

The car has a A6 C5 2.7l Biturbo AJK engine, widebody kit, H&R coilovers, 20 mm spacers, 19x10 et 35 Zito WP111, Continental Sport Contact 7 265/30 tiers with more...
I will make a modlist later.
This year 2022 have been a year full of problems. I hitt a deer the second drive i had and the engine failed (because of the deer) the third drive. So this year i have only been repairing the car.

Current problems:
While i was working on the car i figgured i might as well uppgrade the rear brakes. The rear wheel hub housing is from a 2.7l A6 c5 and i figgured the 269/22 ventilated disc whould be a nice and easy uppgrade from my non ventilated discs. I got the 4D0 615 425 B caliper hanger and W8 Calipers. The problem i have now is that the caliper hanger dont match the depth of the rotor (54mm).
Does anybody know what caliper hanger i need?
I also want to fix a ABS problem i have had for many years. The fault code i get is 00287, open og short rear right sensor. I have changed rear abs sensor, abs unit, abs ring, and still same problem. When i trye to logg the wheel speed sensors the rear right sensor always read 1 km/h. I have connencted new wires from sensor to abs unit, when i measure volt i get low readings. I dont get why i cant get the correct readings from the sensor, any ideas are welcome.
Sorry for my bad english 😅 Looking forward to hear any ideas. There is loads more to write about the car, i will uppdate you

Thank you, i will check that again just to be 100% sure.
I Dont think its bad because it does make Voltage when i measure the connection plugg, and i have changed it 2 times. I will take some pictures next time im in the garage.
Thank you 😁
I will do some more testing and take some pictures, possibly tomorrow.
Here is 2 more photos with fmic on 😁
Oh and by the way, good luck on your sensor issue. I haven't a clue on ABS issues for the most part, if possible I would just check continuity on the wires to get an idea and make sure it's not a wire issue first, I'm sure it's very possible it could be seeing that you replaced the sensor. Check to make sure it's a clean connection, I've seen debris affect connectors too, but it's hard to say. Nice to see a fellow Nordmann on here, my family is from the area of Bergen.
Regarding rear disc upgrade:Hey!

You are FWD?
If you are, there is almost zero rear brakes upgrades for FWD. You will need to play with different brake discs height (offset ). Im also in reserch for rear upgrades but on B5.5😁
I would sugggest: 1. AUDI A6 (C5) ALLROAD rear disc is also 269x22 but different height
2.AUDI 100 (C4) QUATTRO 269x20 (non-vented)
3.Try adjust offset of caliper hangers by moving to outside or inside by putting shims or plate to match a disc
Hello, thank you for replying, it is syncro/quattro
what are your thoughts then?
If you are quattro, there is much more upgrade options.Hello, thank you for replying, it is syncro/quattro
Im not really involved in upgrade of brakes on 4wd cause i have FWD, but here on forum is a lot of guys which are allready make upgrades. Try with search bar above or someone more experienced will answer to your question.
It looks like its plug and play and that it pushes the wheels out abitt more 😁
It also looks like i can use my existing abs sensor.
Can some one verify?
