I just got in my car to drive and it seemed to shudder whilst driving then I noticedthe warning light on. I had only driven for a minute so just went back home. Any idea what it could be? it's nearly 8 years old but is regularly serviced. the last service was 3 months ago. it's done about 55k miles

thanks

    Do you do a lot of short journeys with no long drives / motorway driving?

    Is it a diesel?

    Repeat, is it a diesel? Which engine?
    'Astra' does not tell us much.
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)
