With my factory 4age AA63 Carina (racecar) the check engine light comes on because the speedo doesn't work.
Can't tell you exactly but I would guess that it comes on over 100kph as well. If I look at the codes it says "speed sensor"

I used to think that the orange and green tictacs gave you special powers. The orange ones would make you stronger and the green ones would make you faster. So i used to eat some green ones and run around my lounge as fast as i could, then eat the orange ones and try to pick up the sofa. I wish it were true!
