Electronic meltdown

I was driving home last night and my car went into meltdown, literally.

All I got was a message on the main Nav screen saying "temperature too high", at this point all internal lights went off including Sat Nav / Radio, dash lights. Now considering no hot rat was sitting in the passenger seat, I was somehow taken aback by this and promptly stopped. Waited a few seconds, turned it off, waited some 2-3 mins, started her back up and all was well again.

Anyone else had this strange one or is this yet another exclusive?

Not sure whether its related, but my PDC has stopped working also - this was the case before the event though! L322 Big Daddy SUPERCHARGED 5.0 Autobiography - Here & Now!

May I politely suggest you to change your whisky brand or else add some more water in your malt
