My car is also subject to a recall notice for the fire risk from melting plastic inlet manifolds.

So it seems I can either take the car back to Available Car, since anything they touched in the three month warranty period is supposed to be covered for 12 months, on the basis that the EML light is back on again since September, or the car has to go to a main dealer anyway over the recall notice. I only got my letter in December even though the recall notice was made public in July or August last year.

The P04D900 is specifically for a EGR Cooler low flow problem , the core blocked with soot . That is the code that gets ( or got ) you a free repair .
The 02 sensor is a completely different code .
