"Check Powertrain" Message
Hi
Had my battery replaced today - VZ Berlina wagon, V6.
After I collected the car and started it, I noticed that the clock was wrong but the radio pre-sets were all OK. Reset the clock.
Next time I started the car it came up with a "Check Powertrain" message.
What should I do? Is it a consequence of the battery being replaced or might it be a genuine message?
Look forward to assistance.
Regards

May have logged a fault code some how. You may need to take it to a place that can scan the car and see what the code is.
My VZ did this when the oil pressure switch cacked it.

Can I reset it myself and see if it recurs?Originally Posted by 88GreenVN

Some you can - like the service reminders, but if it pops up again - it's scan tool time

disconnect the neg battery terminal for a few minutes. That resets the ecu.
Might work but it has already had the battery disconnected when it was replaced.
Have a look at post #2 with instruction on how to reset the computer.
