2008 V70 130k miles. I just replaced the front passenger hub along with a new ball joint and tie rod end. Once back together and test driving it was smooth and quiet, no more wheel bearing hub/grind.
I was having an ABS/DTSC issue prior to the hub change. My ICarSoft was showing an issue with the front right tone ring/ sensor and doing live data reads it was indeed not reading correctly and sometimes not at all. I thought the new bearing/hub would correct that.
Fast forward to the test drive, not only am I continuing to get faulty readings from the right front ABS sensor, the car appears to be in either limp mode or just not shifting correctly. I am getting an additional message from the TCM regarding faulty A/B speed correlation. I am acquiring a new ABS sensor and will install it. Should I be looking at any thing else in the process?
Replaced front hub, now ABS, Shifting/Limp mode issues

I’m not sure where the tone ring is on the 2008 P3 models but on the P2 it’s on the axle, not the hub.
A bad tone ring can cause driveability issues, I fought this on. bMW for a month, no codes!

Thanks and great to hear from you. There is an unfortunate lack of information available for this vehicle. I miss my pre-2005 volvos.
From everything I have read the ABS ring is a magnetic ring located on the rear of the hub itself, which appears to check out as there is a little finger on the sensor that extends through the knuckle and rests behind the hub. I replaced the ABS sensor last night with what I thought was the correct one and I went from getting incorrect readings for the old sensor to none at all from the new one, as if it wasn't even hooked up. Apparently there is a number of different variations of sensors depending on the chassis number.

My friend downstate did a P3 axle recently , I thought he wrote it up here? I’ll check up on that.
