Check Everything Lights
I was driving my 06 430 today and i took off from a stop light and car started beeping and all lights came on.. Check VSC, ECB, PCS, ABS, Brake, Traction Control and !... was making steady loud beep the entire time... i pulled over into a gas station and i noticed when i went to stop brakes didn't respond properly and it was very slow to stop.... I cut the car off and restarted and everything went back to normal but this has me really concerned because had i been going fast and someone pulled out or something i might have hit them with the poor brake response.... This happened one other time where all the lights came on and same thing happened and i had asked the dealer and they said it had no codes in the system and not to worry about it.... Im bringing it back in Monday but i have a feeling they are going to try and tell me the same thing and try and push me off and its a 2 hour a drive into the dealer so if anyone has any idea's please tell me....

i support this method.
until you get full video proof, don't send it in.
once you have the video, email it to your service advisor, and then have him show it to his techs, and let them think about what might be wrong.
they always rely on the error codes, so i don't expect this trip to be any different.
i'll throw out a wild suggestion/question though..... how long has it been since you've replaced the battery?
and did you modify anything (ipod, gadgets, etc) before the first incident occurred?

mine has the factory intake mainly cause i haven't been able to find one for a GS430.... It's not turning on the check engine light so i would think its something with my brakes or something like that but all work has only been done by the dealer so im not sure.... Im just really worried about driving 150miles each way for them to try and send me home and tell me nothing is wrong....
