Peugeot 806 System Readiness Error

I'm hoping someone can help. I've got a 2000 Peugeot 806, diesel engine, with just over 97,000 km on the clock. Recently had it plugged into an OBD2 reader, and now I'm getting a 'system readiness check incomplete' error. Shows up as an error stored in the error memory, and I'm also getting an error message on the speedometer. Any ideas what could be causing this? Getting a bit worried!

I had a similar issue with my 806 after a vehicle inspection. Was the exhaust system checked at the same time?

Yeah, now that you mention it, the exhaust system was checked during the inspection. Why do you ask? Is there a known issue?

Could be related. My issue was similar and appeared after a diagnostic check and inspection. The workshop told me that some ECUs have problems to store the readiness flags after reading out. Check the exhaust system and visit the workshop.

That's really helpful. Seems like after doing some research myself, it's a pretty common thing with older Peugeots after an OBD read. Turns out the error cleared itself after a few drive cycles. No cost!
