Engine Management Light at 7322 Miles and 17 Months Old - What a Faff!

[Loadmaster748]

Well, I was greeted by an illuminated yellow EML light on the dash yesterday evening - it could be something or nothing of course, but what it is is disappointing when the car's so young and with low miles. I now have the faff of trying to get my local main dealer to show some interest tomorrow in taking it in for diagnosis and remedial action.

I did call the AA yesterday evening but due to the light only being at "DEFCON Yellow", they were unwilling to take a look for themselves. However, for what it's worth they did suggest that it's likely to be an emissions system problem - hey ho.

I'll provide an update tomorrow hopefully.

As we see a lot of issues with electronics and sensors I would recommend you get yourself and OBD2 Reader so at least you will know what the error code is and can then decide how urgent it is.

Thanks, it crossed my mind a month or so ago.

Can you, or anyone else reading this, recommend a brand to go for?
