It could be several things including poor fuel quality. You could wait and see what happens after your next fuel refill and see if it clears itself, but don't guess. Get it code read properly as it will cost less in the long run.

Thanks Draper, the guy next door owns a garage so he gonna look at the codes for me, did this when i first got it, but we changed all throttle sensors and it went ok till now, gonna get sorted needs few bits doing to her before winter, like tyres and wheels repainting... keeping on top of the service side is a must due to doing 600+ miles a month, really for 2.0 se its not to bad :)
