Ok,...just for the record...I did search a little for these.

First, ever since i but on the EBC sloted rotors and green pads, i am gettting a nice hum out of the front end when i turn. Also my ABS and Brake light has been on since the change. My brake fluid is full. Is there a sensor that i need to replace?

Second...I think i know this one. While stopped and idling, the rpms drop from 800 to 400 and bounce back up. it does this almost every time i stop, especially if the car has been running a while. My check engine light just came on yesterday. I think this is my exhaust manifold.

Any help would be appreciated.

Clean the EGR. That should take care of the idle issue.

Humming during turns sounds like a bad wheel bearing. ABS light being on means you broke or moved the sensor during the install of the EBCs....dunno about the brake light issue. The idling problem could be spark plugs, ignition coils(or coil packs), leak in the manifold, bad O2 sensor.

I had both the ABS and brake light on. I replaced both my rear sensors and all is good, so far.
