Thanks It's booked in for a service and they think its spark plugs and if it's not that than coils... and should I take a male that nows about cars? because I quite clearly know nothing and it's my first car and first service...

Ok... Sorry not at all good with cars, only new to the skyline side of things I recently bought a 1998 GT-T R34 skyline. The engine light came on last weekend but there was no problem whatsoever with the way the car drove. My stepdad (previous mechanic) said not to worry about it so I didn't. It has now started making a funny noise from the exhaust, which I believe is stock, and makes a funny movement which I can best describe as what a car does when your running out of petrol. It only does this when I am stopped or when I am taking off, after about two three minutes it's fine. I have been told it could be cold, spark plugs, or a crack in the exhaust. Sorry it's vague, I'm not good at describing problems... Anyone have ideas?
