I suppose I'm just looking for a little reassurance that this isn't anything to be particularly concerned about, and that I haven't bought a lemon.
I took the car through a car wash today (I know I should wash it by hand, but I've got no hose and there was a huge queue for the hand car wash), and as I stopped to let it do its thing the SRS warning light came on with the message about visiting a workshop.
I sat there for a while starting to get a bit worried about it, then the message went away (there was only the one about needed to reset the tyre pressure monitor, which I was going to do with the air hose after washing the car).
As I drove home it came on again, then went off again.
Having done a search, I suspect this is going to be the passenger seat sensor. - My cheap and cheerful code reader probably can't help me with this one.
There's a local garage that has a Mercedes logo on one of their signs, but they claim to be Mini and BMW specialists. - Should I be paying them to read (and clear) the SRS codes, or will this go away with a little jiggling of the wiring?
