WTF 126mph = Brake fluid visit workshop
Well this morning I was on my way to the gym I decided to punch it and after hitting 126mph the dash showed brake fluid visit workshop. When I let go of the gas and reached a decent speed the warning went off. 1 malfunction was store which got cleared when I restarted the car. It did this two times.
I have the vr550 on the car.
Any inputs on what the problem could be.

Take it back in. I'd guess it has something to do with the repairs you had done.
