Yep. 🙂

I had both the power steering and the maf disconnected at one point and the number hovered about 0.1 then with the maf connected about the same and same again

0.1 is basically a dead short, so if that was with MAF and PAS 4-way (not the big two-way one) connectors unplugged , and you haven't got a sensor in the bottom of the sump, then there is a wiring short somewhere.

I’ll have to check if I have a sensor in the sump because I’m not 100 percent sure but it’s bloody rattling it down so it’s making this 10x harder but thanks how would I go about checking for that short

Expose those black/yellow wires from destination (MAF etc.) to the 14 way connector until something is visible.

If you let me know the VIN, I can look up whether your car has the oil level/temp sensor.

I'll message you to ask for it.

I can't seem to find it in the parts catalogue for your VIN, but I think you need to look anyway, may be able to see wiring going to it down the back of the sump, from engine bay if it's present.

Can you display oil temperature on the cluster display?

Don’t think I can but not 100 percent sure how would I even go about doing that

It would come up as one of the selection you get by pressing the rocker switch on end of wiper stalk, mpg, outside temp etc. I think.
