Whats wrong with my brakes?

Morning folks,
So my gf decided to switch cars today.. I drove her A5 (Crap) and she took mine. 5 mins into the drive, she text me the attached pic. I have no clue what triggers it? Brakes going bad? or some sensor? I still have 3 more months of CPO left.

I would definitiely take the car in. It looks like your ABS may be bad. Dont mess around with it. Take it in especially if you have time left on CPO warranty.

Thanks N54_Fan, I will drop it in this evening then. Do you think ABS is covered in CPO?

ABS ought to be, it's not really a "consumable" -- I recommend you read the actual coverage. See http://www.bmwusa.com/Standard/Conte...nty/Terms.aspx and click on "Covered" and "Not Covered".

It should most definitely be covered unless its a sensor or something simple.

Most likely cause is a wheel speed sensor. Not expensive.
