On my way home it turned on again. Can anyone tell me why this is happening?

I'd be worried about your transmission. Setting the fluid level is not as easy as it seems, with the fluid level set properly with the fluid at 80C. The 722.6 is sensitive to fluid level, and if I were you I'd get to a mechanic with SDS and make sure that the fluid level is right.
And go to the dealer and order an owner's manual. It has lots of good stuff, including what the warning lamps mean, which might save you some serious headaches in the future.
