Decided to sort my abs sensors out today . Rears were fine but can,t get the front sensors out, in fact I broke one of them should they be this tight. Also how do you clean the bit inside the hub that the sensors work on. Shocked

very very rare to get a front sensor out in one piece.
Yes they are that tight Smiley
 
I use WD40 and a small wire brush

I've only ever managed to get one front sensor out and I've tried a lot Smiley
 
Cheapest way is the replace the whole hub and sensor as you said.
 
I think new sensors are pretty expensive (well to me they are) Smiley

Hi,
 
A rear sensor from FMD cost me £70 last year, would imagine fronts to be about the same
