Engine light came on after fitting sports cat
After fitting my milltek sports cat and downpipe a couple of days later the engine light has come on!! I look in the book and it said "fault with the exhaust system" would you say this is something to do with the hi flow cat because the car isn't used to it?? Anybody else heard of this?? Any help would be appreciated

Yep this can be mapped out with a stage 2

Milltek sports cat and downpipe = Must have stage 2 map or as above the error mapped out on stage 1

Ehh nope sorry the traction light shouldnt come on just the emissions 1. I used to get bother with my traction disabling. Nice sharp brake or blast the calipers seemed to clear the wee sensor and sorted it.

Only reason my ESP has stayed off was when my MAF died.
Not saying this is what has happened but you'll need to plug it in to find out why.
