Sorry to jump on on your thread but I have an engine check light related question and wondered if anyone had any ideas . I was joining the M25 off of the M4 yesterday and as I joined the motorway and put my foot down as the car hit just under 4000 rpm the car jolted and seemed to loose power then when I checked the dash the engine check light was on . Now everytime I hit similar RPM the same thing happens car begins to splutter and power cuts , also just prior to this my speedo and trip counter had stopped working don't know if this all connected somehow. Any help/advise welcomed

Answered your own question the speedo not working limits your revs and boost.You need to investigate why the speedo has stopped.
