Hmm. Just had the same red flashing light immediately before a long journey (500 miles) on a very hot day with the car sat in bright sunlight.
Kept an eye on the oil temp, never seemed to go much above 80 (may have touched on 90) which I guess is acceptable for such a long journey. Light stays flahing now, even when I've let it the engine cool for a while, and immediately this would flag up to me 'low coolant level', which I will sort tomorrow.
Noe, on the subject of coolant, does it need to be 'special', as in my previous BMW, water would suffice, but I know thats not always the case with cars, indeed, maybe only limited to a few.....
