ABS Light and traction light on

Hi Everyone.

I ve been reading many post about this problem, also many supposed solutions.
My car is just 3000 Miles, almost new. I was in the highway two days ago running fast more than 100 miles per hour and suddenly ABS light turned on with traction control, the gong advise me and until that day is still on.

I tried the following:

1. turn steering wheel top left wait two seconds, then to right top wait 2 second, again to left and then stop in the centre. Someone said after maximum of 200 miles light might disappear.
2. took out every fuse about steering, abs and traction control and put it again
3. disconnect batery for a while
4. brake hard in order to make the car slip a little bit

well nothing solved the problem. I don't know why if the car is almost new, should happens.... I read that pressure sensor is wrong and normally I have to replace... Why if its just 3000 miles of use.

Now I am worried about guarantee because I install BMW P brembo caliper and simota intake, so maybe I go to the dealer and they will tell me that guaranty does not proceed because modifications.

Can anyone help me pls.

SZL sensor is probably bad. Its about $1K COD repair - I think. Put your car back to stock and take her in. When you tune.. you have to (be prepard to) "pay to play" - if anything goes wrong.

Normally most people wait to mod their cars a little bit.

I see you changed your calipers. It could also be the wheel speed sensor that could be damaged all it takes is a hard pull on the cable to break them. The parts are not too expensive but installed them wrong and you could damage the new ones too. I agree with Dackelone go back to stock before heading in for service.
