I own a Euro-Spec 1993 325i, and while driving today I got a light on my control panel. I don't know what it's for (the owners manual is in German) but it is a Red Circle with 3 dashed lines on either side. Any Help? It occurred originally while I was braking, and I assume it has something to do with the brakes, but I'm not sure.

Yeah, that's the brakes. Most likely means your pads are getting low and need to be replaced, but could also mean your fluid is low too.

The fluid is good, and I changed the brakes about 6 months ago.

A red brake light means you have a fluid/e-brake problem, yellow brake light means you have low brake pad. Either your fluid is low, your e-brake is on (or stuck on), or your brake fluid level sensor is faulty.
