    When the eml comes on you need to get fault codes read.
    Water temp rising is usually bad thing although in this case it may be the sensor.
    Do you plan to address this DIY?

    I assume you already checked that you have enough coolant in car?
    Do you have a code reader?

    Anything is possible. Get the codes read asap by your mate and go from there.
    It's possible it's just a temp sensor but I wouldn't take it on long drives until problem is diagnosed.
