Waring Lights

Hi

I am new to this forum and need help

Recently serviced my car, replaced my clutch and water pump.
Does anyone know what causes the dash warning lights to come on while car is mobile. I was driving in bumper to bumper traffic in the rain(wipers, radio and lights on), and almost everytime I touched the brake pedal and change gears, 4 warning lights (break, EML and yellow Triangle)came on for about a second then went out. Occasionally this happens with the radio switching off also for only about a second...after I switched the car off and restarted, the problem was gone. After driving like that for a day, the car eccelerated on its own, like the timing is out. Please help

What car is it?? Diagnostics might be able to give some answers.
it is a 318i 2004 model

It sounds very weird... almost as if there is a loose connection or something. I don't recall ever reading up on something like this. I still think diagnostics would be the best place to start. If there is something wrong, chances are the system could tell you. :thumb:

clean your break sensors...had the same problem, and the guys said that the break sensors(i think that's what they are called) are dirty.
