So I was driving at 50km/h today in comfort mode and this happened?! I’m taking it into Honda Malmö on tuesday for them to check it, however has any other FK8 owners had this yet?

Engine warning light comes on plus rev matching warning light, it’s showing a P2261 error code too

My cars only done 760km and it’s daily driven smoothly.

I’ve checked online and a couple of US owners have said it’s something to do with the rev matching system/wiring.

Should I be worried?!

I wouldn't be to worried, it seems to be a fairly common wiring fault and should be easily fixed.

Yes! After a few hours of research and browsing through other forums I noticed some other owners are experiencing similar problems at similar mileage... :roll:

Its always nice to hear others say "dont worry!" :lol:

My heart sank when I saw the beeps and lights.

I will update here though once they've fixed it, to ease others minds. As it seems everyone else will probably suffer too..

If anyone else gets it..heres the warning lamps that pop up.

If you manually turn off the rev matching then the Rev match light goes away, but engine warning light stays on

(Sorry for poop quality photos)

Sad to hear about this, I have not heard of anyone else in Sweden with this problem.
