Instrument cluster warning lights
When I switch on the ignition before starting the car, what warning lights should I see on the instrument cluster ?
I see the immobiliser, EPC, ABS, airbag, handbrake but no sign of an engine management light. Is this correct ?

The engine light should be on before you start the car and then go out.

Apologies for not replying sooner but thanks for the replies.
having scanned with VCDS, it would appear it's been removed to get it through an MOT at some point. I've now replaced the lambda probe and all the secondary air vac hoses and the ecu is clear of codes. Are the bulbs easy enough to replace ?

They are LEDs and not bulbs, so it may have just been taped over.
