I have had this issue the past 2 weeks and I've tried cleaning the maf sensor, replacing it with a new one, replacing the air filter and I've cleaned the wiring loom that goes on to the senor. Ive looked for cracks around the housing of it and these none. Any ideas what else it could be.

    Looks like the MAP sensor isn't working, 106kPa is a smidge above normal atmospheric pressure, at idle I'd expect more like 30kPa.
    Unless it is boosted, but 70KPa of boost pressure is rather a lot.
    I want to go back to The Olden Days, when every single thing that I can think of was better.....
