Default Something has fallen off !

Guys,
driving home last night I could hear a rattle coming from the back of the car, then something "fell off" it sounded like a bolt or something similar, now it's not as bad as it sounds (i think) but i now have a light knocking noise, it sounds like the clicking from the gearbox when you gently engage reverse but its doing it all the time, the steering creacks as well on heavy lock, but i put that down to coilovers and 500lb springs !
Joking aside should I be panicking or not ?

Default Orange Warning Light ??

I was on a long journey yesterday and, had been driving fairly nippy.

Went round a roundabout and booted it, bitof a noise and the orange warning light came on and, wouldn't cancel.

Pulled over straight away, checked the manual and, it says it's an emmission warning light.

Drove home slowly and got there OK.

Light wouldn't cancel. Got up this morning and it had gone. The Scoob drove perfectly at all times.

Anyone got any ideas and, do you think I should have it checked out?

Thanks.
