jolt,bang engine warning light
last night I was on boost but not full boost after giving it some round some tight bends, and suddenly there was a loud noise under the bonnet [like a boost pipe popping off] and the engine warning light started flashing, around 8 times, then it stopped, I tried boosting after, only slightely, and its fine, checkd under bonnet, and nothing is different.
Any ideas???

It has always flashed once I think, thats normal , but say this time it flashes twice or 3 times, what does this mean?? Also since the remap at the clinic the oil temp is MUCH cooler, any ideas anyone?? I 'think' the timing was out before, as in the ignition timing, because it ate a few gaskets and now its fine, but surely that wouldn't make it run constantly say 10-15c hotter?

how many times did the engine light flas if its 5 times that can be down to bad fuel and fuel cut problem if the light stays on solid after this then its in limp mode also if you start and drive the car i think its 5 times if all is ok the light will go out

to read the code it goes 1 long flash is eqaul to ten and short flashes eqaul to 1 so if u got 3 long flashes followed by 3 short flashes that is fault code 33 wich is speed sensor i think

why would I part with any cash, it hasn't come up since whilst driving. I will check the sensor tomorrow and wiring, it may of just had a bad connection whilst bending or something. I can't do an ecu reset on Autronic unless I'm going to remap the thing lol.
