Throttle body hasn't been touched. I only fiddled with the air box yesterday.

Just went out, unplugged maf and plugged it back in, idle properly until I revved it. It then hunted for a while a sat at 1300 RPM again. Maybe time to get a maf tomorrow.

None at all just rescanned it. It's either MAF or throttle body. Keep going in limp mode too.

I'll reset the TB tomo using VAGCOM and may buy a new MAF
