Was the brake line removed ? There is no reason a brake line needs to be replaced unless the line was broken or damaged.
One way to check if your car has sensors, is to look for a harness that runs and is secured on the strut. Also check the hub, there is usually a slot in the back where the sensor is mounted.
Some vehicles come without brake sensors, best thing to do is call local dealer, supply them with your VIN and ask them if it comes with sensors.
What were the repairs done to your brakes ? What is the problem after the repair was done ? You may only need to bleed the complete system if calipers were replaced.

SOURCE: 2000 Audi A4 Quattro Passenger Side Power Window...

Ok you have either one of two main problems with it.
1. does it go in one direction only then jams the other way?
Ans. the plastic clips that hold the window to the lifting rail can break.
these can be replaced by removing the door trim & replacing though you will need torx type tools.
2. As with vw golfs & passets the motors pack up or even the wire can break on some of them.
Ans. replace the motor unit in the door or the cable & rail.

3. It is heardly heard tell of but the only other problem is that one of the wires in the hinge area to the door has broken.

4. we have had this one a few times but this would also include the interior lights & central locking not working as well as the windows.
The central convenience unit under the passenger foot well can go wonky & needs to be replaced, usually caused by water coming in through the heaters air filter when the water is trapped in the front of the car ( caused by rotten leaves stuck in the drain points & also happens to the A6 models )

SOURCE: abs noise in 2001 Audi A6 2.7 T Quattro

It is common that ABS system do this from too much air gap to a wheel speed sensor. I would check the left front, since that is the side you had apart. Make sure the air gap is o.k and the reluctor wheel is the same size as the old one.

jack the car up saftely then take the wheels off .. then you will see the brake calipier turn the wheel towards you so the calipier is facing you . at the bottom of the calp you will see a small bolt at bottom undo this and lift prize the calp up then remove 1 pad the inside on where the piston is then put calp back down and put the bolt back in just to hold it in place then when you have done this put a large stronge screw driver in via hole in front to push the piston all the way back but make sure you do the evenly and piston goes in straight or it will get stuck same with all types of brakes. once you have done this reopen calp and take the other pad out clean all area with a wire brush and replace the new pads in place,, and retighten bolt etc , before you start the other side please make sure you pump brake peddle until it goes hard again. then do same to over side ,

hope this is a great help matdav69

9. Check up the brake fluid level on the reservor, and emptying if neccessary!
10. Push piston back into brake caliper housing.
11. Install inner brake pad (with expanding spring) in brake caliper piston. (Arrow marked on pad - if exist, must point in direction of brake disc rotation when vehicle is moving forward).
12. Install outer brake pad into brake carrier.
13. Bolt brake caliper housing to brake carrier using two guide pins. Tightening torque is 25 Nm.

After i changed my brake caliper my brakes in the front passenger side is steel rubing

Time to take it into a mechanic. If you have changed the rotor, brake pads, and calipers and you are still getting a smoking, it might be something in the actual brake lines. Get it to a certified mechanic fast.-------------------------------------------------------------------------

98 Wrangler Sport - brakes - the front passenger calipers

you could have a brake hose that has a piece of rubber making a flapper valve that causes brakes to stay on.or the proportioning valve has gone bad on you. if the brakes were notmush before you changed the hydralic stuff then perhaps bleeding was done incorrectly. just open one bleeder at a time and let it drip a few minutes then go to the next. make sure mast. cyl. doesnt go dry
