Go to empty parking lot. Accelerate. Slam on brakes.

Test complete.

Look on the turn signal stalk. That's where the controls are.

No ****? Lol cool, I seriously assumed they all did since I've never seen a single one without either, and ABS was mandated after a certain year (thought it was far enough back to encompass the whole B5 generation).

oh no lol mine has it too. its a pain in the dick. its there but it hasn't worked forever. and now my brake system needs some more work I'm just deleting it. Jeremy, do you know if a chip company can kill the ABS? I'm pretty sure you can just do it VAG COM, and change the coding. I haven't looked too hard.
