    More problems..........handy!

    Got the car back yesterday and the engine management light was on. I thought this was wierd. Took it for a spin and the vtec doesn't kick in!!

    Is this just a sensor that needs pushing back in/replacing etc?

    check the oil as if its low it stops the vtec kicking in.
    if not might be worth disconnecting the battery might reset the ecu
