Anyone had their ABS light go on?

Yesterday I filled up on gas and started the engine back up. Noticed as I was slowly pulling away from the pump that the "ABS" and "Traction Contol" yellow round lights on my dash suddenly lit up.

After driving for a couple minutes, I pulled over and turned the engine off and restarted, but they still came back on. Just those two lights only. Then after driving for about 5 minutes they shut off on their own. Anyone else had this happen, or know what it might be?

Brake fluid level seemed okay.

Thanks,
Steve

From what I understand, the ABS light is also tied in with the emission control system. Check your gas cap to see that it is on tight. The light may also be tied in with the oxygen sensors and the mass air flow sensor. Find someone that has a diagnostic tool to read the faults. Your Porsche dealer has these tools.
