[pulmicort1415]

Driving today. Luckily in slow traffic.

Screen lit up.

ENGINE FAULT

then. STOP DRIVING

Pulled in and waited few minutes with engine OFF.

After few minutes started again and drove home with no further messages.

Couple hours later again same thing. Luckily again in slow traffic.

Any ideas please

It's well worth checking that the radiator cooling fan is operating properly. If it fails to switch on in slow traffic the engine will start to overheat and you will get the sort of message that you got. When you get home sometime leave the engine running for a couple of minutes and you should hear the fan run; if it doesn't there's your problem. It might not show up as an error on the computer because the warning system worked. I had this problem on a Cavalier some years ago; I replaced the radiator switch and also put a manual by-pass system in just in case the switch failed again.
