Tell tell light

Jon8710 · 20-02-2017, 09:26 PM

After a spirited drive to prodrive yesterday for the Sunday service
I'm now the proud owner of this dash light,
Can any one give me any advise on it and if known
Would it be covered by my warrenty??

No, you definitely can't get petrol under warranty mate

Engine management, you need to get the code read.

How do you know mate have you tried to claim it??

Ok I will have to bite the bullet and get it checked

Have you got an aftermarket exhaust and CATs?

I get a light pretty often (every 2-3 months). I'm running a full Miltek system with 100 cel cats.

I use this device:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/WiFi-WLAN-...MAAOxyRhBS9l5F

Paired with this app:

https://www.obdsoftware.net/software/obdfusion

It lets me read the codes and clear them. 9/10 times it's this code:

- P0430 - Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold

The only time it showed any other code was when my SMG pump was on the way out.

It's not a serious diagnostic tool by any stretch, but it's useful to travel with on road trips and track days, and will clear repetitive exhaust codes on the move.
