Is it an orange triangle with an upside down y inside it?

If so, it's the Lambda Sond warning light, (oxygen sensor).

Lambda Sond measures the oxygen content of your exhaust, sensor can be located on exhaust manufold or where the manufold joins the exhaust pipe.

These can get dirty after a time and flag up an alarm.

Also your engine may have had a slight hiccup, the alarm has registered. The prob' may have gone away and never return, but the warning lamp will stay on for a little while.

I had this on my 850 T5R, the alarm cleared itself after a week or so, and never came back on.

Let us know how you get on.
