I've had this light a couple of times over the life of the car. First occasion was allegedly a restriction in the air filter, second time it was a cracked pipe on the the EGR system.

any idea whats the best course of action? I have RAC warranty.
If the light comes on as you start the engine and then goes off it is normal. The light comes on as part of the vehicle self check when you start it.

Is that for sure? Just never noticed, maybe I am going mad or never paid attention??

It's just odd that's the only last light that goes off on it's own before engine is turned on
