BRAKE, ABS, VDC OFF, SLIP light on.What do I do?

DJ425 · 06-05-2013, 07:11 PM

i checked the brake fluid level and it looks fine. I guess i can add some to top it off. i know i got 40r in the front when it says to get 50r. could that really be the problem? i thought of that but to set off all those lights is a little extreme i think. BTW For the rear tires i got 45r which is what the car calls for.

The car is finicky about having enough brake fluid.
Just make sure it's at the top

Can you give us the exact tire size for front and rear. If the diameter difference between and front and rear aren't close to being the same, it will throw off the traction control/abs.. ect.

You can't go outside and look real quick? That is a crazy size tire on the rear, you sure thats right? I'm think the diameter differences are causing your traction control to go crazy....
