Besides the errors? Not really driving any different, maybe a slight stutter on cold start but nothing major. You mentioned something similar, what was it for you in the end?

Yep, sounds familiar. I drove it for a while but the issue got worse. Eventually, I took it to the shop. Turns out the ECU needed some sort of re-flash. Cost me a bit, but solved the problem. I reckon it’s worth getting it checked before something gets fried.

Took it to the dealer, turns out the coding was indeed borked, as you said. Cost me 360€ for the re-flash. All sorted now, thanks for the help!

I had something similar in my Astra, felt like chasing gremlins! Got flooded by error messages. Was the car behaving strangely besides the lights?
