well yesterday actually

picked up a map sensor from vw and some oem lower grilles kindly given to me
cleaned and treated the lower grilles removed smic and gave it a good clean out and fitted a new map sensor also gave the air inlet temp sensor a good clean as it was black now its back to its original colour

see if this cures my prob

oh and hoovered it out and then fitted the oem grilles and went for a quick drive

today i'll probably wash it
