    So wife took the car to work this morning only to find the check engine light is on the dash, it does however seem to drive fine.

    Yesterday I did think it sounded a little louder then normal but figured it might have been my imagination we did a 200km trip with no issues what so ever.

    Check engine light is still on the dash this evening and when you turn the key initially (before starting the engine) after the dash lights come up the check engine light, oil light and battery lights remain on after the rest go off.

    After the engine is turned on only the check engine light remains on. I've checked oil and its no where near being low on it.

    Any thoughts what it might be?

    You need to get it scanned. Too many possibilities. A code will be stored and give a better idea of what's wrong.

    Could be an intercooler pipe split up where it goes onto the manifold.

    Just went for drive in it, its certainly louder then normal but it does seem to drive ok otherwise. Also alot more vibration from the engine, noticeable so when switching off the engine.
