Google says it is something to do with the steering angle sensor.

From my brief read yesterday it needs calabration or replacement.

There is also a post here  :link: steering angle sensor reset. (http://www.i30ownersclub.com/forum/index.php?topic=37748.0)

It seems the calabration can be done by a wheel alignment guru.

If you need to replace it, there are more mechanically minded people in here who might be able to assist.

Hope this helps.

Hoping calibration fixes it but if not looks like £1500  for new unit..
Just not sure what can have caused fault to show up  as car is handling fine...
