VDC & SLip Light on

New on the forum, hope i can get some help from you guys.

Last nite i drove my car on my way home all of a sudden the exclimation mark and the vdc and slip light turn on but the car drives fine.
But this morning when i went out the light is still on, I try pressing the button VDF but it won't turn off. The car drives the same, has any encounter that problem?

My car is 2004 G35

Hope some of you guys could help me out.

Thanks

Check your brake fluid level, it could be down, and needs to be topped up.

Just remember, if the level is down, your brakes are probably getting worn, so they should be checked if you find this.

^yeah, most likely brake fluid is a short term fix. Likely will need pads/rotors soon.

^^^that's great, just make sure to check your brakes soon. As I said earlier, it is a warning sign that they are wearing down.
