Hi All,

I have searched, but could not find similar symptoms.

Yesterday, the dash showed the message "Check Brake Lights" and "Check
Tail Lights". Also the 4X4 light, ABS light and another next to it (can't remember what it was for) came on.

The brake and tail lights were fine, and I was in a rush to get to work, so didn't check anything else.

In the evening and today the car was fine.

Is this a sign the alternator is on the way out?

The car is a 2006 E53 X5 3.0d.

Any advice would be great.

JG
