I know very similar topics have been discussed often but I can't quite find the answer to my particular issue.

I've a '57 plate Altea and the other day the service indicator "spanner" came on flashing at start up, then went off after a while.

In the past the spanner has come on with a mileage, i.e. miles till service, but it has never just flashed on its own. I could find no reference to this in the manual and there is no other warning light. Service isn't due for another couple of thousand miles.

Is there a problem here that I'm not aware of? Any advice?

many thanks in advance and, as a relative newbie, I do apologise if this is posted in the wrong place

The count down comes on around 2000 miles I think when you turn on the ignition, it then goes off. If you have a spanner flashing it's due a service :)
