	on the corsa c yes, and the vauxhall d range etc yeah. I did it last week on a mates and it read the code out on his mileage display. I have a scanner though so don't normally do it unless im without it. Code list in link below aswell. It should prob be copied into FAQs Click [Edited on 20-12-2011 by johnhara1] [Edited on 20-12-2011 by johnhara1]

	whats the situation when the light comes on? accelerating? sat in traffic? etc.. fault codes is a good start but dont trust fault codes alone. mine threw up lambda when it was actually MAF..
