    Dashboard warning light

    Ah! It all makes sense now, the plug was out when I bought it, looked like it had been out for quite a while! I plugged it back in a few days ago! I might replace it at some point anyway, but thanks for the reply, at least I know its nothing to worry about. And I will be buying a td5 manual I...
