Hello question about ABS

Hello

I am from Serbia, my English is not so good so i will try to explain my problem. I have MINI one PARK LANE 2005 and my car have those simptoms:

1. Rumbling noise from the front wheels.
First my thought was old tires + RUN FLAT's
But ...
2. Now, i have trifecta on my dash from time to time.
What that means, i start the car my lights are on, after few meters light go off, i only have worn brake pads light on the dash (bad sensor i know). But, during the drive, (mainly city drive), on stand stil when press my brake i feel gentle vibration, and clicking noise from ABS module position. When i lift my foot off, it stops but after few meters my trifecta lights go on. I presume that my wheel bearing is on it's way.
3. Also, when i wash my car, when i pour water on the vents above ABS module, i have trifecta efect, also my temp gauge go up, check engine light go on, my RPM gauge stop working and reset all data of the trip, fuel usage etc ...

So, a lot of problems for such a small car ...

Rumble from the front wheels is most likely your hub bearings going bad. And by the way, your English is not bad.

re 3: - - I would check the electrical plugs & sockets, especially near the ABS unit. Use electronic switch cleaner.
Corrosion can cause some strange 'errors' that are not real.
