vdc/slip light, then SES

I was going home from my friend house, drove the car long enough on a local road to warm up the car, then i go on the highway going up to 65~ then i see VDC/SLIP on and i cant turn it off so i drive slow and go home.

I turn off the car and turn it back on and the lights were gone.
Drive the car 5 minutes later to the train station, no lights.
Come back from the city to go home and SES light is on.


google tells me its a bad cam position sensor or low brake fluid/brake pads, my brake fluid is in the middle of max/min but 1 person said topping it off to MAX made his lights go away.

Car doesn't drive weird and I'm at 37k miles. If it was a bad camshaft sensor would the car behave differently when trying to drive? Scared here :C and i dont wanna pay infiniti for a scan until im out of options.

Your car is under warranty, why would it cost money to have the dealer check it out when the SES light is on?

Had the same situation happen, occurred with me near the 24k service. It is low brake fluid/brake pads. After I did my service everything went away.

Just went to nearby mech. I got a vapor emission code and a random cyl 3 misfire. He cleared it and said it could be random and come back if it persists
