Have not had a chance to drive the car much recently but before Christmas i noticed that the above warning lights have come on, it only seams that this happens when i accelerate hard, as soon as i switch the engine off they go off, no problem again until i drive it hard, any ideas it may just be a sensor? Also recently had a break fluid change.

Happy New Year to all club members.

Had this on my C4 - fixed when I had MAF sensor changed and new brake pedal position switch.

I think it was the pedal switch that cured this particular fault (the MAF sensor was for a misfire problem) - which is good news for you as this part was considerably cheaper... Although I doubt your local OPC will fit it free for you, like the dealer opposite the factory in Zuffenhausen did for me! [:D]
 
Thanks for that Ian, i am sure it is straight forward enough has happened before in fact it has not come on for a year or so, may just leave it till i am next passing my opc.

Hi Philippe
I had a similar problem on my C4 last year. I thought it was the GT3 wheels I had swapped to the car when I bought it, 18 x8 as opposed to 18 x 7.5 on fronts, but it turned out to be an PSM sensor which was not cheap,€495 +vat here in Ireland. I got it fitted during a major service so do not have fitting cost.
Hopefully it is the problem with the pedal switch!
Regards
Collie
