    It means there is a current fault. Need to have codes read. Maybe old code needing reset.

      OK.met another guy with a insignia.he suggested getting it to main dealer and updating the software.said he done it and car drove better and cleared a few faults too.I kinda thought it was clearing the codes that improved it but don't know

        As said,the ecu has detected a fault,need a good code reader to see what the fault is and to repair/delete the code.

          The message is confusing as it does not indicate what is happening, nor any particular urgency. I've had this for a few months now (started soon after last service) and Vauxhall asked for £80 just to read the codes... so I used my code reader but it did not show anything, clearing all codes made it disappear for a day. I recently had somehting done at a local garage and they read all codes with a better reader than mine and still nothing came up, clearing did not help either, but one of the guys said that Vauxhall has such "warning" when a major service is due, could that be true?

            No. It has nothing to do with servicing of the car. It's saying there is a fault there. If it was a major major fault your car would go into limp mode. That doesn't mean you should ignore the message. It could be something really small at fault, or something that should be sorted sooner rather than later.

            Not all code readers are equal. In fact Vauxhall cars can be a pain to read.

            Find another local independent garage, should charge you no more than £30ish to read codes. If they see warning message then say no codes, present or historic are there then their code reader is not reading them.
