The engine management light has come on amber and is flashing. My car smalls of burning and is struggling for power. I opened the boot and smoke with burning smell was coming out of boot and the back of car was boiling hot.Please can you advise. P.S i took the car to a garage who had to change head gasket and it took them over 2 1/2 weeks. I only picked it up last night and this problem happened within 10 min of driving it.ThanksAmanda
