1What it means in plain English

The engine or powertrain control system has stored a fault that does not have specific guidance in this database yet.

2Common causes

  1. Sensor or actuator fault
  2. Wiring or connector fault
  3. Vacuum or intake leak
  4. Fuel or ignition problem
  5. Control module fault

3Can I drive?

Caution · drive with care

Have it diagnosed promptly. If the car runs and drives normally, drive gently to a workshop. If it runs badly, stalls, overheats, loses oil pressure, or a warning light is flashing or red, stop safely and get professional help. If the code concerns the brakes, brake vacuum or brake assist, do not drive until it is checked: a hard pedal or longer stopping distance means stop.

This page gives general information. It is not professional advice. For a definite diagnosis and a repair quote, ask a qualified mechanic to inspect the car.
