Hi chaps, why is my 'engine system service required' message coming up with an orange warning exclamation mark every third engine start? There are no OBDII codes and the engine works fine. I've checked things like the oil level, listend for air leaks in the intake system. I've taken off the throttle body for a good clean, which did improve the response quite a bit, it was quite gunked up with tarry oil deposits. Had to do the throttle relearn thing(switch on ignition, engine not running, press slowly on throttle to full throttle and repeat) because it was idling high after the clean. Now idling perfectly. Not even a drop with the air con switching in and out. Changed the air filter too.
