    Mine came on the other day while travelling along a duai carriageway at around 65 -70mph - nothing happened and it went off after around 15 mins and has not returned - I was half expecting it as the car has been running fine for the last fortnight and I knew I was due something - Anyhow if you look in the handbook it says if it comes on for a short while and then cancels itself, no further action is necessary - but I managed to get a new GM EGR valve for £36 of fleabay so I will replace that next as I'm sure it must be time and that is the only thing I haven't done!

    mine comes on then off after a while after but that was after i tried to do the swirl bar mod that didnt work instead it put the car into limp mode

    even had the cars fault codes read and nothing apart from lamp light generator or words like that meaning alternator but that is working fine had the rac check it and even the garage that read the faults

    Could be the fuel pressure regulator there was a re-call on your model. Phone Vauxhall customer services they will advise had mine done and fixed the problem for free.
