Default Over active ABS

My ABS controller seems to be activating every time I approach a complete stop. It is weird... it makes kind of a "farting" sound and causes me to increase my braking distance.

I have ceramic pads, and fresh Brembo rotors, but this doesn't make any sense to me.

Any ideas as to what the problem could be?

Thanks,

JC

Maybe one of the sensors is bad or is not sending the right data. You can probably have someone record what is happening with a vagcom and laptop.
