Is this likely to be caused by a split in a top intercooler hose?

I think what is described here is the occassional, random and very momentary popping up of the 'Engine System Fault' message which occurs as the car is turning over but actually before it has actually started. No other accompanying warning lights. Mine does this perhaps every 2-3 weeks. It started after the starter motor was replaced. As it happens when the engine isn't actually running I haven't followed it up yet. The car continues to run perfectly. I am curious as to what it might be however! |

Thanks zeb. Yes the situation is exactly as you describe. I have had battery drain issues recently resulting in a replacement battery and a new alternator both which were not required as the drain was finally traced to fuse 49! The ENGINE SYSTEM FAULT message started at this time- I put it down to a low battery but now that the issue has been resolved the message is still randomly appearing!
