Homer Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Did this happen as soon as you started it or after reaching a certain speed? Is the engine check light lit up at all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 If the light started flashing at 60mph it'll be a problem with the active spoiler. Does it have an aftermarket front bumper? Does it do the same if you hit the 'Acitve off' button on the dash? If the check light is on an error code is stored, click on the highlight text to see how to retrieve the code number and therefore you problem Welcome BTW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robzki Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 I had exactly the same problem with mine when i picked it up, o/d light flashing, sometimes from start othertimes when When I get on boost, but occasionally not at all. I found a cheap fairly simple fix. theres a lever on the left side of the steering column. if you use this you can adjust the steering wheel upwards and hey presto the light disappears from view. I may start charging for this valuable advice in the future so make the most of it. Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dodgydave13 Posted March 16, 2008 Author Share Posted March 16, 2008 ok thats good robski but i would like to understand why the light is on before ignoring the problem but cheers for the advice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
