Scared!!!

Post by aaronon »

Hey,

I was reversing my car tonight. . .and I've always found my Polo difficult to reverse small bits - always feels like its easy to konk out if its only a small distance of a meter.

Anyway. . I reversed it two meters (just to get it over my drive) and I conked out (must have taken my foot off the clutch as I looked out the door. Anyway I had beeping and the oil light was on.

I restarted the car and all was perfect!

Was this just a random error, anyone ever had it?

Afraid incase that means my car is screwed :O

Thanks :)

Sounds as though you stalled and the car was just letting you know. The car was probably more freaked out than you. :D

Was the beeping the lights on buzzer because the door was open?

Coud have been because I have the door open and the lights on couldn't it have?

Didn't sound like a normal beep and I'd never seen the oil light on! Just got freaked out.

Hasn't came on since so hopefully I haven't broken him haha :)
