Hi there if you have Bugeye/Blobeye WRX(bugeye WRX have worst/sensitive camshaft sensor) and if you are hitting the rev limiter for few times ecu will trigger CEL-check engine light and after few starts will disappear....
This is common faults/error on Bugeye WRX...
And again if you have someone with obd reader will be good to find which error code has been(this code will be stored like historic code in ECU)

There is only one way to find out whats causing it... plug in the two leads under the steering column and get the fault code (thats if you have a classic)
