Vauxhall Tigra engine auto-diagnostic light on

Car: Vauxhall Tigra
Variant: ecotech 1.4
Model Year: 1996
Categories: Running Rough, Starting & Power Loss
Hi, just bought my son his first car, a Tigra 1.4 with 90,000 miles on the clock. He got me to put a larger rear exhaust box on, then within about 10 minutes of test driving, the engine auto-diagnostic warning light came on, plus it's now smoking slightly and not ticking over so smoothly. I had to weld some hangers for the rubbers to fit to as the box was not a vauxhall item. Have I screwed up? Paul

Take to a local garage and just get them to put a scan tool onto vehicle and see what codes are recorded it may just be a fault has occured at that time and may not be anything to do with what you have done,out of interest did you mig weld and did you have battery isolated
