New to me 05 r53

Hello,
I just picked up an 05 r53. In true mini fashion, the service engine soon light came on literally in the drive home. I assume that's the same as the check engine light? Or is it just the oil change light?

Anyways, it's name is Pico, it comes with a borla exhaust, some sort of cold air intake, and I don't know what brand of coilovers.

Previous owner also tinted the entire windshield? Kinda weird. Anyways, it's just a fun daily for a while.

Welcome,
Yes the Service Engine Soon Light is the check engine light, so it needs to be diagnosed to fix it.
