Default False equipment warning ?

Just wondering if anyone else has had a false message from the car computer system?
Today my 4S placed a message on the small screen saying that I had a "Chassis Failure" and showed a symbol of what appeared to be a shock absorber.
I felt nothing different about the car's handling and drove home, turned off the car and restarted it. The message was gone and I couldn't incite it by activating any of the suspension controls. I just returned from a test drive and couldn't make the event happen again. I suspect it was a computer fart, but I really don't know.
Any thoughts?

Default Same Same

I had a similar fault with the 4 wheel drive system that prevented me using Sport or Sport Plus modes. Cleared on the next restart.

Dealer upgraded the cars software and it has not happened since. My car is a Turbo built in March 2010.

Cheers, JohnnyB
