Reduced Performace error

Just picked up a 2001 XK8 with 34.9K miles on Fiday, and Sunday evening driving on the highway doing about 75 mph, I got an error message saying "reduced Performance" and the engine light came on. I slowed down to 55 mph and brought it home. I searched the Forum here and didn't see any info. Car is running great and I do not feel any reduced performance at all.
Any ideas? I'm thinking that the car has been sitting for a while and was not used to being exercised and that I just need the error reset.

For any future issues triggering a warning message or illuminating the MIL, if you don't have a Code Reader or Scan Tool and need to get someone to read codes for you, always ask for the actual code(s) rather than their interpretation of them. Posting the code on the forum will then get you the precise list of possible causes and make fixing a whole lot easier.

There's a huge variety available from simple tools that read codes, through those that read and clear codes right up to ScanTools like AutoEnginuity which approach dealer facility level.
