This is very strange now, I managed to limp it to the specialist with all faults present (at a max speed of around 15mph). Left it overnight and when they looked at the car the next day there were no faults stores and none being displayed by the car, they drove it and it didn't fault. I drove it for around 30mins today and it still didn't fault so I've brought it home for now, but I don't trust it at all |

It could be down to a dodgy battery - 5 years is a reasonable life expectancy & once the level drops, they can throw up all sorts of weird faults.

The faults displayed on the dash could clear themselves if the fault goes away

Yes I thought that too, can't quite figure it out as I haven't had the battery off and the faults have been present since they were cleared by the AA.

So 3 weeks in and the fault hasn't recurred... however today I got a new fault. 'Adaptive dynamics error'. I had the code read and it turns out the wiring to my front left damper had a split, I repaired the wire and this fault has gone away.
