The mrs just sent me this picture:

She turned it off and on again, and all appears well?

They came on when she was on a back road so I wonder if something was jarred loose. I know the simplest answer is to get it plugged in at a specialist and I will as soon as I can, but are there any common reasons for this occurring?

I had the triangle with the circle a little while ago, when I scanned it it was a break pedal switch failure.  It also went after cycling ignition.  Haven't changed it yet as it hasn't recurred - got the part in the boot, just not enough time in the day...

 

I think the other light is the ABS though, so perhaps you have an ABS sensor issue.  I only had one light.

 

Anyhow, as the car obviously knew it wasn't happy, so a scan will almost certainly reveal the culprit (or give a good clue).  I'm sure there is a member near you who could scan it for you before taking it somewhere, have you seen the thread with the VCDS map?

Thanks for the reply The mrs went back out in it and it went in to limp mode... Just outside the specialist! So one hysterical pregnant phone call has prompted immediate inspection so I'll update shortly!
