My Ride: 2007 Mercedes Benz e63 AMG
I saw a warning light on my dash last night and have no idea what it meant. It was gone 30 seconds later, never to return, but I'm very curious.
Its hard to describe - kind of like half of the car, with something next to it? I wish I could be more specific. I cant find it in the owners manual, and just wondered if there was some sight or listing somewhere of all the images and what they mean such that I could go find it visually.
Thanks, in advance.

It was actually something that appeared within the little area shown in #7 - the same place where the yellow "temperature" snowflake appears when the bell rings that the temperature is below 35 degrees.
Check Service area of IDrive - maybe something is noted there.

OK, actually went to my car and forced a door ajar warning, that ain't it. But it did jog my memory. I think it is the gas cap warning. Had it numerous times on the old car as it aged. The warning light is the half a car as Pete describes with the fuel door ajar (I think) and a little gas cap bby it. That's my new guess...

Loose gas cap would trigger emissions warning ... maybe it's the gas cap door?
