It is the cat converter, just turn it off and on and it will sort it, it is a known fault.

the best solution for this problem is to have a diagnostic check,
most of the time it will show a fault code/codes most garages can do this check and this should show the fault in my experience its the best and cheapest place to start.
diagnostic check costs between 40/70 pounds'
good look

Hi Christine, the light means that the engine fuel injection computer has detected a fault and you are noticing it in the missfire, you need to get the car connected up to a diagnostic fault reader soon before possible engine damage occurs, the main dealer can do this but is likely to charge £80+ you might find a local exhaust garage will offer diagnostic readings for around £30
