Thanks for the advice, I'll be sure to contact them at some point.
May be useful to add that the problem was a faulty brake light switch! I'm delighted as a cheap fix.
My 2005 Forester is showing the following warning lights
VDC
ABS
Malfunction (engine symbol)
And Cruise is flashing on and off.
Grateful for any suggestions, it's an XTE 2.5 Turbo, and appears to be driving fine.
In case it needs plugging into a diagnostic can anyone recommend a Subaru or other specialist in the Medway area please?
Thank you.
