Hi all. New problem!! Whilst driving a 130 journey the amber warning dsc light came on. Stopped, turned ignition off. All ok for 20 ish miles. Then back in again. The same happens on any journey over 20 miles. Help!!

I think it's the usual advice for something like that. You need to get a scan done to pinpoint the fault area and at least point you in the right direction

Could be a bad position sensor, but needs a scan as suggested to confirm which one.
