Did you have the engine light on or any warning messages?

Is this an RHZ engine or a RHS? [It's in the VIN number.]

Unplugging the MAF should have put the light on? It would also cause limp-home mode and use a default air-flow reading, which may be better than the actual one was if the FAP has blocked.

How many miles has it done and has the additive or FAP been changed?

its done 57,000 i know the additive has been changed, and think the fap has but not 100% sure.

so what your saying is the light wont come on if the fap is blocked with the MAF unpluged? is that right?

thanks for all your help screwloose your a genius!!!

Not on this one I'm not.... I'm struggling to get a handle on this.

Maybe a code-read and an examination of the live-data is the way to go.
