Warning lights during spirited driving??

igota21incher · 11-20-2013, 11:36 PM

Hey guys, in the last couple of weeks I noticed an on going issue with the warning lights in my dash. During spirited driving, the brake and vdc off/ slipping tire lights flash. However, during normal driving this seems to be a non-issue. I would also like to add that the brake light flashes and goes away on its own after a couple of seconds. Meanwhile, the vdc off/slipping tore light stays on until I shut the car off and turn it back in. I found the same exact issue*on a 350z forum, but found no conclusive remedy. They suggest it has something to do with the brake fluid being low, but this does not explain the vdc light. Can anyone shine in on this? My car is out of warrantee and know these fixes could be expensive.
Thanks*
