Default AU probs

hey all still probs with the au

oil pressure light is still coming on at lights...oil pressure is perfect..switch is new

smell of coolant...just had it flushed and filled....no leaks at all

going around corners or roundabouts feels like the car wants to slide out...same while hitting bumps car pulls to left or right

when slowing down in gear using no brake.....it surges until i come to a halt

surging still while 1st into 2nd....ran diagnoses check on it....fuel pump is fine...some error codes came up...was unsure if they were past probs or new ones....map sensor....going to check in few days again..if there are no probs i got told they are injectors??? would it be cheaper to put in rebuilt ones or just clean mine

cheers all
