Today I got a red BRAKE indicator that I haven't seen before and am having trouble determining what it means? The manual is brief and lends itself to low fluid? (I think). I have gotten the "check linings" in the past and done the rears myself. I also have gotten the "brake light warning" and sanded the socket on the rear taillights as well so I kind of thought I knew my way around the system but this new light is really frustrating me.
The only pertinent search I could find was this:
http://www.xoutpost.com/bmw-sav-foru...13-brakes.html but there was no explanation of the light.
I too am CPO but I am certain this wont be covered. (I've been unlucky with the dealer).
Note: About 2 months ago I had front suspension totally redone at Indie shop and the mechanic said I was "almost through" the front pads. I knew this as I got the car w/39K miles with brand new pads/rotors. I am now at 73K and I am a "spirited" driver. I was going to wait until the sensor went off and get meaty rotors and pads and do it myself. Could these issues be related?
Thanks for any thoughts, this site has been very informative...and saved me a lot of money!
