You definitely need to sort out the engine mgmt light and look at all your DTCs before going any further. You ideally want to diag it on a proper BM tool - INPA would do. You could then also read off your ZB etc and see whether it changes with a flash!
Thanks for your response. I really want to buy a code reader but I don't know about them. Is there any that you would recommend? I have access to a laptop with Bluetooth (no CD/DVD drive) or Android smartphone.

What about this one for example?

Whereabouts are you based? Just wondered if you were local, I'm in Cheshire, North West
