Could be a huge amount of reasons unfortunately...

As Rob says a code is best if you can get one. Not knowing the icarsoft, I'd do what many do and invest in a GAPiiD if you intend to keep the FF.

I often get this just after I fill up with diesel. Tends to happen if I refill when the warning light comes on. After a restart it goes away. |

You need a tool that can read pending and/or historic codes.

There is a fix for the faulty fuel reading. It's around fixing some wires in the tank....probably in the Wiki Gone to a good home: 2011 4.4 TDV8 Vogue SE Buckingham Blue with Ivory and clear glass = "Rory"

Could be the water in fuel sensor. I´ve had to replace mine on both my L322 and D4. Same thing, yellow RP comes on intermittently but no effect on the cars performance.

You can buy the 3.6 fuel filter housing and remove the sensor and wiring from the back and transplant to the 4.4 housing on the car. There is a large difference in price as the 3.6 housing is £39, where the 4.4 is £250. So if you read the codes and get a p2264 it’s a much cheaper fix. |

Im currently having a similar issue where the warning triangle in yellow comes up on my TD6 with abs warning etc. No loss of performance etc and clears on restarting. Mine fault is the steering angle sensor and I have purchased a replacement one but seeing as its a pig of a job to do haven't committed to changing it yet. Interestingly the fault only occurs when the vehicle lowers after70 mph. If I lock the suspension at normal height I don't get the issue. |

That code usually has no effect on the car and is a pain to replace. You have probably read Greg's thread by now...I did have mine changed at Rovertune when they swapped out my secondary turbo.
