Just had car back epc light on and can smell fuel

Just had
New clutch clutch plate bearing fork sleeve alloy fly wheel master slave spring on pedal switch on pedal
Put the car pack together
Now epc light on the dash and slight smell of fuel seems ok driving but as revs drop on stand still sounds a bit different like a misfire but don't seem to have a misfire and don't seem slow

if the car has been disconnected from the battery it might run a bit rich for a while.

That code is interesting - suggests steering wheel control module but also could be the clutch switch.

Does the cruise control work?

I was thinking the same but seeing as he had to bump start it the other day my money is on the other clutch switch (the blue one) or the white one not being fully home or faulty.

Thanks again for all your help
I am now hearing that if you change to a single mass fly wheel from a duel mass it can take the crank out any one heard about this or is this others cars not rs4s
