The ABS light has come up on the dashboard so I assume I need some new brakes it keeps making a loud whirring noise. Any idea how to do the job?

I would agree that it sounds like the brakes are an issue. Here is a guide that will help with this:

Below you will find the process from the manual on a vehicle that is the USA version of this vehicle. We don't have a manual on this one as it is not offered in the USA but this is going to be very similar.

Please let us know if you have questions. Thanks
