Guys, I am having a problem with the meter as well.
Its causing driving issues. Anyone know a good supplier that can sort me out with about 2L of that high quality Evian flush liquid for proper meter reaction?

Seems like a very common problem.
You seem to have it worse if its causing driving issues - mines not that bad yet.

maybe we could organise a group buy, it's actually an NCT failure as well if it's not topped up.

Oh and toff, i only asked cos i'm about 100yards up the road from Fogarty's.

Could be but I'd say it's more likely the g-force meter or else the active suspension management override warning light..... it ties into the g-force meter and flashes a warning if the pressure on the shocks exceeds a certain level - kinda like a failsafe in case the g-force meter stops working... although probably unlikely...

:smt040

I heard that poor Toff is no longer with us as he had an unfortunate accident in his FTO involving trying to corner hard to keep an eye on his G force meter while wearing high heels and a rubber suit.

I'm sure he will be missed by all. :lol:
