Default Has anyone seen the following code; 2obo, and does anyone know what it means???

Hello, I have an 02 bugeye, typeUK and has been remapped at API before i bought it by a previous owner. I took delivery of it and the next day the engine management light came on. Very long story short, it has been back to API today and the following code came up on diagnostics 2obo. Another problem was also detected and that was a missfire on 4. In the past the light has come on only when starting from cold, engine idles for a couple of minutes then the light comes on. It doesnt go out after many restarts, car is driving well with no other issues.
If anyone has any ideas i would be really grateful, maybe a beer or two in it for ant good answers!

Thanks for the reply, i have just been back in touch with API and they have come up with a solution, they say that it is related to a misfire problem, so hopefully that will cure the problem!

MY02 bugeye's throw up random CEL's from time to time, this particular one may be related to the notorious Neutral position switch sensor fault

Hope it gets cured..

Cheers, the neutral position sensor has been replaced, it seems to be related to a missfire on 4 at start up from cold. API think they have a fix for it, so fingers crossed!
Cheers for the advice
