Take the car to your local Autozone or equivalent, and they'll read, for free, the OBD codes that were stored when the CEL came on. Don't use their definitions of the codes, use the Jag code definitions that are here in the forum.

Let us know what the code and/or definition is and we'll help you determine the cause.
