ok thanks for the advice I will try to read the codes (am doubtful of my competence) as has been suggested and get back with them.

In the mean time am I doing any damage running the car as it is ?

If as you say it`s the orange "engine" light and not the "spanner" light, will probably be the per-cat codes as mentioned so no damage

Damn.....should be pre

[TheBoy]

Tell us what the stored code(s) are, and we can tell you if you are doing any harm

It takes 2 mins to find the codes on a V6.


Yours may be a bit early for a 2.6  - PM me the reg, I can check if thats right

[RobG]

thanks hopefully someone will help im at a loss and confused why shes still running so well.

Even armed with a code not sure what to do with it

yep stupid I know

Nigel (Entwood) is close to you, and being the gentleman that he is will probably be able to assist. You can always send him a PM.

That`s what the "spanner" light is for on our newer models

I thought the 'spanner in the car' warning light was immobilizer issues (at least that's what it says in the manual?)

More than happy to offer any help I can ... I do have a basic code reader/resetter and a little knowledge of the V6 variants .....

Due to family commitments you only have tomorrow night (Tuesday) this week ... We're leaving for Scotland Wednesday evening to see Mrs E's poorly mum, not back until next Tuesday..

I get home about 5 ish on tuesdays so any time after that would be OK for a quick code session.

I'll PM you a phone number ..
