Afternoon all,

On the way to work this morning down the duel carriageway in my 2017 Alfa Romeo Giulia 2.2L Diesel and suddenly I had multiple warnings on my dash. These included: Amber ESC light, red AST light, collision assist disabled, check electronic break warning, DNA disabled and stuck in N, and amber check engine light.

I've had all this before months ago but when I turned it off and on they disappeared until today. All the lights did go off after turning the engine off and on a few times but the check engine light remains.

I've seen posts mentioning the battery but I've travelled in it all week so shouldn't be low on juice and this happened 20 minutes into a journey.

Not sure if the check engine light just needs resetting or there's a genuine issue as it's still driving fine. Only thing different about my journey today was the 3-4 inches of snow I had to defrost from my car, could freezing temps have this impact?

Any info much appreciated before I take it to get looked at!

Cheers.

Cheers gents.

Come to think of it, my rear demister has been sub-par recently! Any recommendations for an OBD kit? I'm not very clued up on these things if I'm honest.

Thanks again.

Somewhat of an update.

I purchased and OBD2 reader online. It arrived this afternoon and when I went out to my motor the CEL was no longer on... DNA now working again too. It was still on this morning so I've not got the foggiest.
