Hi,

This morning when I started the car it sounded rough and was vibrating and shuddering. The 4Lo was flashing and the Slip Indicator and Engine warning lights were on.

Checked fuses and fluids all were good. I drove the car yesterday without an issue. It starts first go without a problem. It has been raining and the roads were wet yesterday but i had not driven through puddles or anything like that.

It was bad enough that I was not game to drive it anywhere but into the shed.

I looked on the forum here and tried the disabling off the battery for 20 minutes but the lights came back in and the car was still shuddering. I don't think it's the starter as the car starts without any issues.

Any ideas? Any help would be appreciated !
Cheers,
Letty

There are a number of things that could cause these lights so we need to start with checking for codes.

Once we know what codes are there we will have a better idea what the issue could be.

We don't have a manual on this vehicle but will be able to help in more general terms once we know what codes are there. Let us know and we can go from there. Thanks
