cars a my02 sti bug

just installed my gauges oil pressure, temp and boost (with adaptors not sandwich plate) also removed header tank and painted up and some new coolant pipes

everything seemed fined when i started my car up for a few mins yesterday, abit of smoke from under the bonnet due to quite abit of coolant loss , incar heaters seem to work fine and oil pressure seems to holding at around 6.5

checked the 2 sensors (cylinder 2 and behind alternator ) for any leaks and all seems fine

anyway come to take my car out this morning , still a bit of smoke from under the bonnet from when i removed header tank and hoses , got about a mile down the road and the engine light has come on the dash

drove back home straight away , lifted bonnet once smoke cleared a doubled checked everything and couldnt see any oil and coolant leaks

any advise please

also say if i found the fault for example a loose wire would the engine light go out or would it need resetting ???

i have called the aa as a friend said they carry fault readers , thought i would get my money back as paid for 4 years and never used them ...lol

Best bet is get the laptop plugged in and see what the light was and take it from there fella, plenty on MS have the gear.

 

Read the codes, and check for leaks...

dunx

P.S. CEL won't go away ...

 

AA just been and pluged his gear into car
error is no o2 oxygen sensor found
he has cleared the error so light has gone out for now


anyone know where my o2 sensor is

 

cheers mate

what do i need to be able to get this info on my laptop ???

 

just had a quick google and am i right in saying that the sensor is in the headers near were the uppipe is

need to try and trace the wire back as was ok before unless some coolant has damaged it as thats were alot of fluid was lost when i removed the top rad hose
