If you did work to the exhaust eg. changed cat? your emissions light will come on after a few hours of driving to show an error with the cat but that's normal usualy your tuner will just turn it off

But it's been on ever since I've owned the car and the engine light has always been on ... Last owner said it was something to do with rev limiter but it's permanently on lol been turned off but it pops bak on
