'Engine Check' warning light is blinking in 2010 GP 1.4 Petrol.

The engine is vibrating (I can feel it steering too) and giving sound like 'Brrrrrrr' while in idle and accelerating. While driving the power is reduced noticably.

Because of COVID lockdown, I didn't rode so much from last 3 months. So the battery discharged completely and I recharged it a week ago and took a short ride then while turning ON back 2 days back for first time, I got burnt smell and tiny amount of white smoke and water from exhust.

When I checked in the User manual, it is related to 'EOBD ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM FAILURE' and the blinking: indicates the possibility of damage to the catalyser.

What would be the problem? What should I do next?
 
I'll do basic service for car, especialy with focus on good spark (plugs, cables). This is what I will check before some "deeper investigation"
 
Basic maintenance.
All fluids levels and condition and consumption (and/or mixing).
Battery charge once again.
Alternator operation (charging or not).
"Earthing points" (corrosion) under the hood.
Relay/Fuse-box in the engine bay (also corrosion).
PCV system ("breather hoses") and/or EVAP system, vacuum leak.
Old spoiled fuel in the tank?
Spark plugs and/or injectors worn/dirty.
Air filter.
Get the "cable" (interface) + FES/MES software to read the error codes.

Search. Those topics are covered well on this forum.

SOLVED.

Checked today at FASS, the cylender 3 ignition coil is dead. So I replaced it.
Additionally I replaced Cyclinder 1 coil too as it is about to die.

Thanks Rado77 and GrandePunto PL :slayer:.
