At a guess it was wet. Had you washed it or was it raining? Happens on mine if it gets really wet.

"L" - erratic road speed sensor..... could be crap on the pick up, the pick up is goosed, the gap is incorrect....or many other possibilities surrounding poor connections. If you get underneath the car at the rear and have a look at the diff you will see a toothed wheel and a probe close to the toothed wheel (should be about 1mm gap).

Good luck

(EFI)Just the wet weather - you also get it if you give her a good soak when washing. It generally goes away after a good 15 minute drive. I get it every now and then, nothing to worry about.

Thanks for all the replies. Tried resetting the dash but EFI FAULT comes back after a couple of minutes running. Ran it for about 5 miles, EFI FAULT still showing. If there may be an over or under fuelling problem, I don't want to run it for so long!! Will try cleaning the sensor by the diff and try again. Thanks Howard for all the fault codes, don't I just know I'm going to need them!! Will come back with progress. Cheers all.
