Volvo: Engine Light/Flashing Arrow, scan tool, error codes


Question
Hope you can help me out. I have a 00 S70 and just recently the engine light came on as well as a flashing arrow, I've checked the manual for error codes but cant find anything. Any idea on what this is and more importantly can I still drive it. Your thoughts

Answer
Dino,
It appears there are some fault codes that are posted. You need a scan tool to read them. If you are not sure or have a bad feeling about how the car runs tow it to the shop. If you do drive it check all fluids and just take it easy to the shop. Too hard to say if you will cause any damage. You may want to play it safe and tow it..
