That will be a pure guess.

If the engine management light has come on there will be a fault code - or the fault will have been logged if the EML goes out before you get a chance to diagnose it.

Time to get your diagnostic kit out again if you don't want to potentially throw money down the drain...

Well had code P0087 low fuel pressure so after lots of reading the main culprit seems to be dirty fuel filter ,so when the light came on there was only 100 miles left in the tank so I went out bought a new fuel filter then stopped off to get fuel on the way home and guess what the light went out straight away after refueling so still have to fit the new filter this weekend but glad it appears to be sorted ...
