1.8 nissan almera auto 2002 - new exhaust now engine management light on - johnmckellar

Recently took car to KwikFit & got whole exhaust replaced including CAT. Engine light came on. Back to KwikFit - diagnosed O2 sensor. Simply re-set it so light off for a bit but came on again. Tried running it for a few days to see if it would re-set itself. No luck. Going to take it back to KwikFit - they caused the problem after all.

What should I be asking them to do? Is this a new sensor(s) issue? Different CAT? Really inconvenient for me so need to get it sorted & not just re-set again.

Thanks for any advice.

JM

Could be damaged connection or bad earth or air leak-you need the codes read.
