Just been out to check over the zed and after running for a couple of minutes the engine warning light has come on. Any ideas what could cause this? The engine seems to be running OK, but I cannot test drive it because I am in sheilding!

morning You,

am assuming all was all ok last time you used car, think if I had EML light on would probably see what DTC,s are stored, make a note of them , clear codes and then start engine and see if they come up again, if so then investigate the area indicated

As soon as I can I will put the code reader on it. I am not able to use it for 12 weeks anyway.

Yes, code reader to point you in the right direction, could be a cam sensor or an air leak, thats what seems to be the usual issues.
