The car had a number of air leaks that the local Z shed found and remedied.

Rough idle disappeared.

car stood for a while.

Started up today. Rough idle and these codes

Pretty much all point to a dead O2 sensor I think.

Dead post cat sensor in the exhaust, high fuel trims that have reqached their maximum so you should hqave an eml lit up on the dash. The Maf code may be a result of the bad exhaust sensor and not the Maf itself.

The MAF is relatively new. I didn’t notice a dash light driving it over to winter storage yesterday.
Just noticed it dropping revs on cold start ( which it did before the shed fixed all the air leaks).
So worth replacing the post cat O2 sensor?
Thanks for your help
