My car has the same problem, but much worst than you, some times telling me the light bulbs failure, steering failure, oil pressure, engine tempeture...etc....
But if i restart the car...all these has gone.............but they will come back occasionally, gutted~~ :thumbsdown:

What you can try though is to disconnet the battery, which will reset the computer and all the failures should be gone for awhile.
My car will take back to the dealer next week after installed the scoop, cos the problem increased recently and i can't stand for it anymore!
