My lass just informed me that this happened on her way home tonight...
Battery light came on.
Pollen _______ fault came up on the display. The gap is something she can't remember. But it wasn't filter!!
Any ideas?

If aux belt gone would I expect power steering to pack in? As the power steering is fine...
