Default S40 brake problems

Hi, I have just bought a 51 reg s40 1.9. The problem is the brakes. When you try to stop it sometimes puts the ABS on even when there is no need for it to come on. Also, it needs more force on the brake to stop than the v40 I had. When I checked the callipers they were a bit sticky on the slide bolts but they were cleaned and were fine after that.

Cheers in advance!
