My previous post was
Breaking the plastic tube on the radiator
Then removing and refitting a new radiator and expansion reservoir
Followed by an assessment of the mishimoto radiator
Top up coolant fluid start motor test and check for leaks all good
Then a big why have I got the engine fault light up
read the threads on here
Take the car for a run switch off switch to ON but do not start press the brake pedal 20 times in 8 seconds
Lights goes of
Start cat again light stays off the oil pressure needle goes from low to high back to low and then settles as normal
Job done well pleased with my work and all the advice I got off here
Cheers all
Terry

Good job Terry.
Most people would have gone to a garage, got misdiagnosed, paid then money for work they didnt need and blamed the car
