Just done the pedal test, flashed up loads of things and lost count all the time lol so will video it and then write it down tomorrow lol
whats the worst one to have light up the one with the spanner or the one i have,,,, im thinking the one i have is down to emissions mainly
Infact the other thing that springs to mind is when i give it GAS, the sounds like a rattle comming from the exhaust, could this be a dead cat??

Well just got the car all sorted, for the MOT today, but on the way home the Engine light came on 
GREAT!!!!
Little history about the car, i got it a week ago, as the car had been sitting for 6 months and not moved,
I got it for a good price with the view to sell it on, but kinda like it now lol, so got it all running, normal stuff battery dead, sun roof dead, all now done, and the running, when i drove it home for the first time it was a dog, but that im sure was to be expected being sat for 6 months in all that cold weather lol.
So cleaned the inlets out,TOTALLY GUNKED UP and repaired a water leak, and now runs a little better, at that point no engine light
The revs at that time were sitting around 650 at idle ( i thought a little high)
Also sometimes the revs would hold at 2000 pm, drop then rise again for a few mins, then it would settle down.
But now the revs sit at 500 RPM at idle but now the engine light is on,,,,, any ideas
its not reving as much now, and also when i give it some stick it splutters at the higher revs, thinking it prob just needs a dam good run or a service,,,,, would this clear the light issue or do i have something more serious?
also is it the pedal trick or paper clip test i need to do if so does anyone have a link on how to do it .
thanks in advance

Hi guys
Great forum btw and finally got me a 2.6 CDX Manual mmmmmm lol in black X plate, but it failed the MOT today, on a headlight
the tester said that the passenger side head light was a new one, but from a LH drive model, thus the beam was totally out, question is, is this adjustable, or do i need to but a total new unit and have it fitted.
Also how hard is it to fit if i need to , they are the zenon ones so a little worried lol
Any help would be great
thanks
Tony
