Had ABS, ESP and TPMS lights greet me today..... after switching the engine off and back on it left only the ABS light on, which itself dissapeared a moment later. Torque Pro found no codes so I'm guessing that I'm ok to not worry too much..... that warranty is really going to be stretched otherwise!

Torque Pro only picks up engine codes, doesnt look at ABS/ESP etc. May be other codes stored, which i imagine there will be to illuminate the warning light. Worth getting them read, hopefully a one-off 'no communication' or even related to low voltage perhaps.

Had an intercooler/boost pipe pop off last night so will order a new clip.

Other than that the Leon has been a little neglected lately. I would of given it some tlc this weekend but, one of the directors at work is dropping his new Jag XF-R off for me to give it a detail and remove some minor scratches.

I'll get them read soon when I have another service. They re-appeared again yesterday, but a quick restart sorted it out. It seems my car is made by Microsoft!

Out and about in town thismorning and a guy in a blue ford pulled up alongside me at the lights and said how much he liked the Cupra . He asked if it was as good as the old one , then the lights changed :)

Later, got over taken by a black Vauxhall Insignia VXR with twin exhausts each side .Haven't seen one before tbh ,looked a bit like a Megane 265 from my rear view mirror .
Didn't realise that Vauxhall do so many models VXR INSIGNIA range .
