I pulled the car decently hard, not all the way and the SLIP and VDC lights came on and stayed on, I remember seeing this thread a while ago so when i had a chance at a red light i turned the car on and off it went away, No lights for he rest of the day. I remember my friend and my dealership telling me that my rear pads are wearing out and I should change them by the end of summer. Don't know whats really going on but i'll wait on it for now.

Good stuff earth.
I would think your brake pads will be good for quite a while yet.

I purchased my 07 G35X in Dec 06 and have 40,000 kms (24,000 miles) on it now. The brakes are still fine even though I had to add less than 2 ounces of brake fluid to keep my VDC/Slip/Brake warning lights off.
I am fairly easy on my brakes. If my light comes on again I will definitely check the brake wear as that is an indicator that they are wearing.
I will be getting them checked again later this summer or if I notice my brakes behaving any differently.

Oh, I must add that I get them serviced once a year (disassembled, cleaned and caliper pins and slides lubed)

Thanks for you advised GEE35X. 24000mi is reasonable enough to be replace brakepad.Since i have read many posted The Stealer always mention to have BrakePad change if the light came on as warning.
