**Update
Hi guys thanks for your concern, I took it to the same mechanic that fitted the exhaust and he managed to replace the o2 sensor at the bottom of the manifold and unseized the o2 sensor just above it (charged me £30) so I can replace it in my own time once this new one from eBay is here, hopefully start of next week. This for now has got rid of the amber engine light, I drove it for just over an hour and the engine light has not came back on, which suggests it probably was not switched off by a OBD reader. I also mentioned to him regarding the “clunking noise” when I turn the steering wheel at low speeds and to have it looked at. After looking at it he said I have a broken coil and that he will phone me sometime next week to have it in and replaced. I have my car home now and a bit scared to use it because of this broken coil (he did not mention what side or where just said it was a broken coil).
My question is having a broken coil does it mean that the car can be used until it’s fixed?
Also how much would this roughly cost?
Many thanks
