Horrible day,

Heading for Edinburgh and stopped off a Heart hill services for fuel, only to hit a sheet of ice on the way out and end up hitting a kerb side on, damaged (I think fatal) My front nearside 301 alloy and scored the rear too, tracking is now out and the dash has lit up like a bloody Christmas tree, Runflat system is out (Yellow icon) and the DTC,DSC and DBC icons are on Yellow too... lucky I managed to limp home, no flat spot in the steering but a slight pull to the left, guessing replacement alloy/Tyre on front, repair to rear....

Poor old bugger behind me hit the Kerb front on with a box new Lexus, ripped the front spoiler to bits and burst his tyre, knackered alloy :(

As for the lights....any suggestions?
 
Of the steering wheel is out of line then the steering angle sensor will flag a fault and cause the lights to come on..
 
Maybe you knocked out/damaged one of your wheel speed sensors, causing your car to sense a fault and therefore shutting off all of your abs, dtc, esp etc. The flat tyre sensor will run off the ABS sensor, which measures each individual wheel rotation compared to the rest and the speed of the vehicle, therefore indicating if one wheel is rotating at a different rate to the rest.

Either way you'll need to take it to someone to take a proper look at as you may have damaged your suspension system also if you've had a side impact with a pavement
