I've had a few of the common "Drivetrain - you may carry on driving" messages over the 18 months I've had the car - usually after around 100 miles RExing. They've always disappeared without any problems.
This weekend I had my first "Drivetrain - Do not switch off engine - you cannot restart … etc". I ignored it & switched off the engine and have carried on happily for around 50 miles and several restarts without problems.
It's not really convenient for me to lose the car in the immediate future so - has anyone else successfully ignored this message without problems?
I've read the earlier longish thread on this issue which seems to have a confusing number of different diagnoses & fixes - but no one reporting success with the "ignore & hope it will go away" approach, which I'm beginning to think might be the best first option with non-persistent i3 fault indications.
Any views?
