Whilst driving my car the engine light came on and it felt sluggish and started to shake a bit too.

The shaking indicates a misfire that must not be ignored as it can lead to very expensive repairs. The place to start is by having the diagnostic fault codes read and recorded. Those will indicate the circuit or system that needs further diagnosis, or the unacceptable operating condition. The people at many auto parts stores will read those codes for you for free.
