Have you had the computer scanned to determine why the ABS light is on?

no i have not as of yet, however, the jumping in reverse is what is bothing me. In the morning or whenever i start the car up and put the gear in reverse, i get two jumps before the car go in reverse mode, i hope i am explaining it in a way you can understand.

I understand. You may want to have the computer scanned to see if there is a code stored.
