Hi Everyone
Just joined after having recently acquired an Omega (2000 on an  X 2.2 CD auto estate full leather). I love it, absolute dream to drive and tons of space (obviously!). It's done only 70K miles and has recently had the cambelt changed. One slight fly in the ointment is that the other day it came up with the "automatic gearbox" Check light. It has only done it once and the performance wasn't affected (didn't slip or go into "limp mode" at all) so I am wondering what I should do about it? Any insight greatly received. By the way I should point out that I am a computer geek by trade and not at all mechanically minded when it comes to cars so any DIY is probably a no-no :-(
Many thanks.

Hello, I believe you may need a code reader for your model but do check out the guides on here then ask for further help (post in the necessary section). Cheers

Hi & Welcome to the OOF.  :y

Under-steer is when the front of the car hits the wall, and over-steer is when the rear of the car hits the wall.
Power is how fast you hit the wall and torque is how much of the wall you take with you.
