Looks like traction control. If you have an owners manual they are all described in their, But on my checking and as above on anonymous it looks like traction control, turned off or if its coming on as you slide around corners it is just saying it is activating and stopping you from loosing control.

That is your traction control. Either you pressed the traction control button it say ASR OR ESP on your console in the center next to the hazard switch.

I have a audi a4 2.4 2000 avant. a orange light came on . triangle with circle around it and this ! in the middle of it. please help

Yellow circle, with triangle and exclamation mark – The Electronic Stability Program (ESP) dashboard light flashes if the ESP or traction control is activated whilst driving. If ESP or traction control has been switched off, it will light up continuously. If ESP or traction control is not turned off and the warning light illuminates continuously, it indicates a problem and malfunction with either ESP or traction control.

A warning light on my mini one diesel 2011. a yellow circle with capital (A) in centre

I think you mean the yellow circle with the triangle and the exclaimstion point? ... That would be a service light. If it says ABS in the center (orange warning light ln the right, not left) then your brake system needs inspected or serviced.

Unknown dash warning light. Almost full yellow circle with arrow head at one end. Anticlockwise direction. Open at the bottom. Exclamation mark in the centre.

It's similar, but not identical to the standard brake warning light (these usually have two circling arrows, one on each side). Check your brakes. The park brake may be on, or there is a fault in the brake system.

I think it's time for a rule requiring warning indicators to have a printed label as well as an icon. Too many people have trouble figuring out the hieroglyphics, especially when they don't follow a standard. Even if you don't read the language, you can look up the word on Babelfish. You can't do that with an icon.

Warning Lights

Are your hazards lights on? I don't know your car but The triangle most of the time is hazards lights. Now when you turn your key on all the light should come on then go off, If on stays on in some cases it could be just a bulb. To check your Bulbs use you turn singles / blinkers. You can get them on by turning key to on with out starting car. Then turn on our left by pushing switch down first. Check driver side front & rear. Then check passenger side by switching to the right switch up. Good luck

Alrite mate, there is a warning light on my dash its a warinig triangle with a circle round it, wot could be cuasing this its on a mk4 golf x reg

Not sure from your description but this sounds like your traction warning light (left side of the warning light panel, it looks like a triangle with an arrow going round it in a circle), it normally comes on when you have either turned the traction control off via the button on the dash or if its wet on the road. It can also be caused by cornering too fast.
