Any help is most welcome please.....Thanks

Looks like your MAF(air flow metre) has had it. Reset the code and run car again to confirm.

You can test MAF by unplugging sensor and if car does not run worse it has had it. But the code confirms that anyway

replace the WD40 with silicon electrical spray or sealant makes a difference specially to the coilpacks.

Does sound like you need get diagnostics done buddy

Could it be dodgey wiring? Just with the engine moving each time you either let off the throttle to coast or to roll down a hill it may well be chaffing somewhere.

Search on here for Cage mod, could be worth doing if you have already renewed the MAF. I did mine and it made a feelable difference.

Was it a genuine Maf or a cheapy after market One?

I replaced the MAF with a Bosch one from my local stealers...
