was on my way home from football, went to accelerate, and engine management light came on flashing, exhaust sounded like it was blowing and had lost some power, also could smell a funny smell but no smoke, any help would be most appreciated.

I'm certainly no expert but presuming its a petrol, first thing I'd be looking at is an obvious sign of an intercooler pipe or even vacuum pipe coming off, coming loose or maybe split somewhere. If not then next step for me would be to get the codes read.

Yeh Ive just had a look can definitely hear something hissing, I'll take it to get checked.
Cheers for the help smile
