Thanks for all the help I do think it is mass air flow I unplugged it and cleaned it at weekend . I forgot to plug wires back In I took I for a drive a all faults were there . Plugged back in and a tad better but rough idle still there. Does anyone know if my part number being 021906462 no letter would be interchangeable with 021906462a as I can get one for 25 quid thanks g
