  • AFL Fault

    Advice please,

    On way home tonight it started raining, became overcast, auto lights popped on. No issues. Well had to boot car from 2nd to 3rd across two lanes of traffic (For Marko - Humber Bridge car park across both lanes to turn right to go back onto bridge) whilst turning , wasn't a pretty gear change (still not used to car).

    Well at same time auto lights switched off, 1st message was something like levelling failed or something followed be service lights etc. Then an orange light on dash showing this fault i assume. Quite annoyed carried on across the humber bridge, half way across light went out. Parked up 3 miles down the road, stopped engine, restarted no fault. Messed putting auto lights on/off still no fault. Locked car and left while in shop, came back unlocked, lights did their dance, started engine drove home no fault.


    In your vast experience of all things great do you think it was coincidence, that i was booting it, sloppy gear change and auto lights changing just as i floored it in 3rd. My thinking is they like to be levelish to get a decent datum point.

    Really don't need a trip to Vauxhall so soon.

    Sounds like thoughs Vauxhall gremlins.

    I can imagine it left a code behind. Might be worth giving the car a scan and see if anything comes up?

      Just scanned using Car gauge Pro and Torque, no current codes or old codes or stored codes or pending codes to be seen.
      Only thing its showing is 0000 powertrain which is actually an invalid code displayed by cheap plug in OBD2 readers
