engine light
I just got my car out of the shop,it was there for 2 months because it was overheating. they replaced the head gasket,cylinder head, radiator, thermostat, and coils. This cost me about $2,600. And now when i take it home my engine light comes on and the car begins to shake, what can it possibly be now??....i have a 2002 Honda Civic Ex...someone please help or give me some input...thanks.

The "Check Engine" light has to do with you emission sensors. I just recently had that light pop up when i was on a road-trip. I put the silencer on my exhaust for the trip and it ended up causing a back-up in the system and one of my sensors/valves needed to be replaced. It ran me about $300 at the local Honda dealorship.
And you say that your car is shaking too??? Sounds like definate mechanic-incompitance. Take your car to a better shop next time.

why did they replace the cylinder head? was there damage from the overheat? did you use water or coolant?
