Check your windscreen washer bottle, the low level alert may be enabled on the cluster.

Easy, stop "flooring it braking hard or doing any thing involving g force" and car won't complain.

Maybe the mobile phone in your pocket is being pressed against the seat during high levels of G-force and activating buttons on the keypad.

Airbag warning. The g-shock sensor is probably out of wack

Do only some AU2's have this feature, not all?
