OK. I first checked the fluid level and its fine. Did the 2 minute key on brake reset to see if it might have been a momentary glitch in the sensors. But alas I will have to check the pads and sensors sometime soon. I think maybe I can use my BMW Scanner to tell me which sensor is showing up as bad. I hope that the rotors are still in good shape and not needing replacement also. On my E46 I had an issue with the rear sensor collecting dust and debris enought to make it appear the brakes were low. I blew it out twice with air and it work well for about two weeks or so each time. Then I took the brakes apart and cleaned the sensor well and it has worked fine for about 2 years now.  Thanks for the info.
