Exhaust System Warning Light

Post by Polo_Gio »

Hi all,

Was driving my car this morning with no problems or lights. Got in my car to drive home...no lights yet... Got to a set of lights only 5 mins into driving and my car started to splutter and sound as if it was gonna cut out but it never did. Got it home and opened the bonnet.....i swear you could have mixed a paint tin with my engine, it was shaking like mad. Turned her off and back on and the Exhaust System Light came on. Drove her to garage and guy cant take her till Tuesday.... :( :(

Dont know if this is a seperate problem or not but when i come to stop at lights i now have to press my brake pedal allot more that i had to before. Even then am slowly coming to a stop and not am prompt as i should....brake pads were renewed a while back.


HELP.

Check your brake fluid level - the yellow one in the engine. That could be the cause of the brake problem

Cheers,
