Hi Pete,
Regarding your engine light: YOU DON'T WANT TO DISCONECT YOUR CHECK ENGINE LIGHT! On our V40, a common "Check Engine" light is caused by the wife not putting the gas cap back on tight enough. In your case, you might want to make sure your cap is in good shape and not leaking.
You can purchase a device that you can plug into the OBDII plug and tell you what the problim might be and you can also reset the "Check Engine" light.

I just purchased a program and cable for my laptop that will do the same plus much more for about the same price.
Hope this helps,
Bob
