The other approach would be to swap the exhausts for stock. I have a virtually unused pair of stock exhaust pipes which you're welcome to foc if you can collect them from Sussex. Alternatively I am occasionally in Essex (nr Stansted) so you could collect them from there if the dates work.
As a last point - the check engine light is an MOT fail so it definitely would cause problems if/when you sell the car.
Thank you, Chris.
I think taking you up on the offer of free pipes would be very appreciated. I'm Essex, so not too far from you - I'd just need the dates to work (ideally from the Stansted). Are they one long piece or do they break down? I may need to borrow a car to put them in, my daily is a little MX5!
Usually, Len at Brands Hatch Morgan resets the code so it clears when the car goes in for its MOT and service, which is why MOTs haven't been an issue in the past. He has generally stated that there is nothing they can do to fully resolve it and always provides the reasoning that different driving styles are why it flags up; however, all the comments in the forums from others who have experienced it clearly suggest otherwise. It's frustrating as understandably, nobody is going to buy the car with the EML on, even though it runs fine. I don't really want to sell, but 3 years in over 2x 3 Wheelers, the itch is scratched, which is why I am contemplating it.
