the abs warning light bulb could be blown.but take car to garage have abs code scan to make sure abs brakes system is working correctly to be on the safe side.

have your abs system scanned at your local mechanic shop your brakes are nothing to mess with.

BMW MODELS AFFECTED: All with ABS

FAULT: ABS warning light comes on intermittently. Normal troubleshooting procedures find no defect.

Possible Cause: If car has recently had two new tires, or snow tires put on. Sometimes when the car is driven over 50 MPH.

Solution: Check all four tires on the car, make sure they are the same brand, style, and size. Check if
any of the new tires have substantially more tread than the rest. These differences may cause enough
variance in rolling diameters to confuse the ABS control unit, which in turn, gives a false signal to the ABS
warning light.

If that is not the issue, it is most likely the ABS control module failing.

I think your problem has sorted itself. No need to go to garage.

Doubtful it's an intermittent electrical problem. Far more likely you've got a wheel speed sensor issue. Since VSC gets all it's information from the ABS system, start by pulling the trouble codes. I bet you'll see an ABS code. Read this post

mr simpleton your problem came after or was there before the brakes were done.in either case it has nothing to do with pads and rotors , have it scanned and i am sure one of your sensors on the wheels have set a code. or simply check your brake fluid level

transmisson replacement is necessary.
thanks.

You need to have your brakes inspected by a professional. The lights indicate that ABS and traction control are not working...although brakes will work without these features, a humming noise can indicate more problems to come.
