1.4d 4WD Urban Cruiser showing the following lights orange  engine light / VSC / 4WD / skid risk

 

had car for 4 months all good - wife borrowed it and on second day this happened... (yes i know - thoughts bests kept to ones self) she drove 30 miles to work.. all good. when she started up to leave work all these lit up and have been on since - carp rives ok but wont pass 60mph -  heading for garage check next week. 

Anyone had this experience / words of wisdom? - from what I read it could be a wide range of possibilities and without ECM being interrogated it might be 'needle in haystack' stuff... just wondering if there is common reason/possibility

thanks

get the codes read, Toyota's put up multiple lights on the dash to say Hay look at me, rather than just 1 orange light

it certainly looks like Toyota like the full on Christmas lights way... light up loads without actually identifying issue - i guess that was they way to chase owners back to dealers for  interrogating EMU.

driving generally fine heading back to near garage but feels a bit sluggish (like its lost power - had one cylinder not firing on a previous car that felt like that) does the UC have a limp mode that reduces power when warning lights showing?

with a diesel, it will sometimes put the car into limp mode (this usually reduces the turbo pressure and backs the fuel off to protect the engine)

thanks for replies - yup that is what im hoping regarding power. And hopefully it turns out to be something like ABS sensor etc

My car went into limp mode once and then was the speed reduced to 30-40 km/h. Had to have the particle filter removed sent away for cleaning. To much city driving/short drives with a diesel isn't good. It needs to get up in speed to be warm enough for the regeneration to start.
