Hey there. Just need a clarification. When on high speed or about to hit a pothole/bump and suddenly brake, the ABS kicks in and the brakes vibrates upto the pedal making a huge sound like gagagagaga. Is this normal or the actuator is about to give in? Also do note there is no ABS light on the dashboard.

Sounds normal...

Under heavy braking the ABS system will "kick in", you'll both hear & feel it as it alternately reduces pressure to prevent locking and then, because the "danger of locking" has been removed, reapply pressure, which of course again presents the possibility of the brakes locking up.
