Took the vet for a ride tonight and I got the message "service active handling", "service soon".
How bad is this? Can you do it yourself or do you have to bring it in for service?:1zhelp:

Were there any codes that popped up? Were you doing anything out of the ordinary as far as your driving?

No, it happened while it was still in the garage. I was told that it is a sensor that has to be replaced and the code confirmed that. I will check it again before I bring it in for service.
Thanks for the reply!

Which sensor did you have to replace. I have the same problem, mine comes on after you are riding around for about 30 minutes with normal driving. The codes are to many to list here. Thanks :thumbsup3:

Changed what sensor?
How anyone would try and diagnose these symptoms without pulling the codes first is beyond me. Talk about a waste of money, shotgun repair is not smart.
