I have an '03 G-35 Infiniti coupe. I drive it pretty hard. If I go around a street corner or hit a little wetness on the road surface, the VDC, slippage and ABS lights all illuminate and don't go off. I typically will have to start the car 4 or 5 times to clear the lights. I have tried pushing the VDC switch after the light is illuminated and it has no effect. Most recently, I was driving (responsibly) past a local park and locked up the brakes when I saw a soccer ball entering the street out of the corner of my eyes. I could feel the ABS "pulse" as they engaged, but the VDC/slippage/ABS light came on afterwards. The lights cleared when I stopped and started the car. This doesn't seem consistent with other descriptions of VDC i've read on this forum. I've searched the forum for VDC and haven't seen a similar problem. Any insight will be appreciated!!!!
