girlfriend has 1.1 2004 206. yellow engine light is on but car is running perfect. the oil was very low (off the dip stick)!. topped up with oil now showing full. would this have caused the engine management light to come on? if so hoew can i get rid of the light now? cheers

Needs a code scan, your just guessing unless you have the codes read Wink

Shouldnt do, who knows what codes the ecu has stored Laughing

Then again the oil level gauge on the dash at start up gives plenty of clues to the engine oil level Wink

why to call AA to read you the codes,while your GF car is running perfect as you said,the AA for help on the road when your car is broken down.
So take it to the garage or the dealer instead of guessing,because such light on the dash can be cause by hundreds of things,and only diagnostic software can tell you what it's for sure,good luck.

They have paid the fee for the AA already, so why pay again? Wink
