Narrative:
During #2 engine start, the 'engine vibration/filter pressure' light on the pilots caution and warning panel and the F/east panel remained on longer than usual (however, we attributed this to the OAT of 24 degree). With all other indications normal, these lights eventually extinguished. During the takeoff at approximately 110 KTS (V1=127; vr=134; V2=148), these lights illuminated again. The takeoff was rejected and we returned to the gate. No extenuating circumstances beyond a 'normal' aborted takeoff were encountered.

Title: FLT CREW OF AN ACR WDB TKOF ABORT BECAUSE AN ENGINE VIBRATION FILTER PRESSURE LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON TKOF ROLL.
Narrative: DURING #2 ENG START, THE 'ENG VIBRATION/FILTER PRESSURE' LIGHT ON THE PLTS CAUTION AND WARNING PANEL AND THE F/E PANEL REMAINED ON LONGER THAN USUAL (HOWEVER, WE ATTRIBUTED THIS TO THE OAT OF 24 DEG). WITH ALL OTHER INDICATIONS NORMAL, THESE LIGHTS EVENTUALLY EXTINGUISHED. DURING THE TKOF AT APPROX 110 KTS (V1=127; VR=134; V2=148), THESE LIGHTS ILLUMINATED AGAIN. THE TKOF WAS REJECTED AND WE RETURNED TO THE GATE. NO EXTENUATING CIRCUMSTANCES BEYOND A 'NORMAL' ABORTED TKOF WERE ENCOUNTERED.
