I have an intermittent overseer warning light showing occasionally, normally after 30 - 40 minutes of driving. Once the car cools down it doesn not show again for another half an hour. I don't have time to get it reset by my local dealer before leaving for 10 days of continental touring, probably 1,500 miles or so.

My car is a 2025 MY 2 litre Plus Four and as far as I can gather these devices are fitted to stop unintended acceleration, mainly on autos.


Does anyone know if it will be OK to leave it without a reset for my trip or is it something I can reset myself, such as depressing a button?

Same here. I also have an isolator, similar to the one recently shown in Miscellany, with a low amp fuse in parallel. Keeps the car systems constantly powered but if some oik tries to take the car the high starter current blows the fuse.

When I spoke to the workshop about the overseer. light, they said it lights up if the battery is low. Also important to always lock the car even in the garage, as power is consumed if the car is left unlocked.
