    Hi new user so thanks in advance for any feedback. I'm looking to attach a Leo Vince exhaust in place of the original. I've been told there's a good chance the engine management system light will come on. Is there a way this can be done without this happening..?

    When you remove the original exhaust, you will need to turn the servo wheel which operates the exhaust flapper. Now disconnect the cable and put the exhaust to one side. Now you're ready to fit the new exhaust. Fire it up and listen to your new lovely exhaust, but note you will see the èngine management light on the dash. At first you will think oh shit .....What have I done!!!! Don't worry though, switch the ignition Off, turn the servo wheel back to its original position and the engine management light will now be off. Of course you can turn it back as soon as you've disconnected the cable at the begining but I'm just going through the motions!!

    When I fitted my Race Fit can I knew nothing of the potential engine management light issue, as PauloHRC says it’s simply a case of making sure the servo motor wheel is not molested out of its original resting position, then you’ll be fine. No issues in my case.
