Malfunction lamp came on today Honda Accord 01 2.0 vtec
Doesn't seem to be any problems, not over heating, not leaking water or
anything, oil pressure is fine.
I had to drive the car 20 miles after the light came on and it was
performing fine.
Any advice? I know i'll have to take it to the dealer.
anything, oil pressure is fine.

No idea without the code. Have someone (mechanic, autoparts store, etc)
read the code from the ECU.

So go to an autoparts store now or on your way home from work and have it
read. Might confirm it's just a loose gas-cap or something meaning you have
nothing to worry about. But without that code, nobody can do anything more
than make guesses, guesses that may be worse than the actual problem leading
to needless worry.

I'm in the UK Seth, all our autoparts stores are closed by the time I
left work and its a holiday weekend here. I'm sure the dealer will be
open tomorrow so I'll drive up there in the morning and see what
they're saying.
Thanks.

Many auto parts stores will read the code for you and it will tell you the
area of failure. Some failures aren't detected in driving performance but
could cause expensive damage such as burning out the catalytic converter.
Read the extended warranty and have it looked at...
