Four lights flashed on dash

WTF 335!

Had four lights on my dash come on in YELLOW, but they are intermittent and do not stay on for long...

- ABS
- Flat Tire Monitor
- Dynamic Stability Control
- handbrake icon

- ABS icon on mail screen

(non iDrive)

The owners manual says;

CAUSE:
Indication* in Canadian models
The driving stability control systems,
including ABS and the Flat Tire Monitor,
have failed

WHAT TO DO
You can continue your journey. Drive
cautiously and think well ahead. Avoid
situations that require full braking. Have
the system checked immediately.

I called the dealership and they said that it's nothing to worry about unless they stay on for good... ??? (wtf, really?)

I noticed they only come on for a bit if I'm doing over 120kms and have been maintaining that speed for a while, OR if I am driving on a bumpier road...

Could it be that the wiring is damage and jiggling loose?
I'm pretty sure its time for a wheel balance since there is a slight vibration from the front passenger side wheel...

Has anyone else experienced this?? Help!

Are you still under warranty?
