![Question](https://www.scoobynet.com/images/icons/icon5.gif)
Guys, a quick question.
Recently with all the rain we've had I took the scoob out for a bit of a play.
Pretty much every time I've been having a little sideways fun the CEL has come on. It goes off after a day or 2 at most and i'm at a loss as to what causes it to come on?
I don't have a code reader but will look at pulling codes off it. I'm just wondering how drifting can ping a code when nothing else does?
Thanks, Sean.

Need an OBDII reader (either VAGCom style cable + Learning View) or a stand-alone device to read newage DTCs.

I've spent hours on google looking for it. The best answer I can find is if I hit the limiter too many times, it auto flags a CEL that will turn off after 5 engine starts?!
Tried it 5 times and the light went out, I'm therefore assuming it is that.
Thanks anyway though.
