1998 C70 T5 GT - Common faults ?
 
Hi

On start up my C70 has 4 lights come on the dash, 2 stay on

1. The veritical flashing arrow telling me that there is an auto box fault. Yet there does not seem to be one

2. Came on at the same time the engine symbol I presume for the management system the book tells me emmsions may be poor

The other 2 being brake and ABS which go off after a minute or so

The car appears fine

CAN anyone HELP

Thanks

mine to.
 
I just bought a 1999 C70 T5 GT today (1/8/2009) and after i drove it about 90 miles i got the brake warning light and the ABS warning light on. After they come on the speedo drops to zero and i loose the display for my miles travelled. Not only that put the power of my engine seemed to drop. It was like pulling away in 3rd. (mines an auto). After a while it seems to clear itself but need to get it sorted. I also need help. Love the car though.

I also lost
 
Please tell me if you crack it.

I also lost my mileage.

Losing power is probably in LHM Limp Home Mode.

The car is clever enough to try and limit the damage to itself through further use so puts itself into LHM forgot anything over 3000rpm. LHM Controls the autobox
