Run flat warning light

mattbedford · 14-03-2009, 04:22 PM

I went to view a sg csl this week and was in mint condition. Only problem i noticed was the run flat warning light was constantly illumninated. The tyres were fine and the owner said that its always on and was normal. Dont think this is the case is it ?? and is it something cheap to fix does anyone know?

Perhaps needs recalibrating. For some people it does seem to be the most difficult thing in the world even though it's incredibly simple to do (takes about 30 seconds max). It certainly shouldn't be 'always on'.

Thanks guys. Was the only fault i could find with an otherwise well looked after car. Made him an offer on wednesday, he said he had another viewer this week and would let me know. Really want one now. Been looking for the right one for weeks !!
