Hey all, have had my dc2r for a few months now all has seem to have gone perfect except 2 months ago i lost my license and last week my dad went for a drive to take the car to work and bent the headers where it meets the cat btw my headers are tri-y headers and where they meet into one they were bent, i got that all fixed and as soon as i left the exhaust shop the engine light came on .. i figured it was just oil or something so gave it a minor service just oil and oil filter and the problem is still there the engine light is still on. Yesterday me and my friend went for a drive and i noticed the car dropping its idle when i come to a stop .. the car doesn't turn off just drops to around 400 then goes straight back up to 1000, just wanna know whats wrong before i take it to a mechanic and charges me hundreds for a possible simple fix... thanks guys your help is much appreciated. Cheers.

maybe its busted then ? coz if the o2 sensor is gone the engine check light will be on.
and the reason i think its the o2 sensor coz it happened as soon as you left the exhaust shop.
