Hi

I get a yellow warning light every now and then. There are quite a few messages in the reader. I suspect they are all related since they all started to show at the same time shortly after being at a garage to replace the ABS module. Hopefully one of you have experience of this and can advise how to sort it out.
CB Fuel trim bank 2 control limit
F2 Misfire, cylinder 5
F3 Misfire, cylinder 6
F1 Misfire, cylinder 4
E4 Fuel trim bank 2, permissible range exceeded
BF Insufficient heat output, oxygen sensor behind catalytic converter, bank 2
E3 Fuel trim bank 1, permissible range exceeded

Thanks,
Jonas
 
You likely have a vacuum leak. Check the rubber tube from the MAF to the throttle body for cracks etc
 
Hi, have finally got around to replace both upper and lower rubber tube from the MAF. Disappointingly, the yellow warning light keeps coming back.

08 Signal, air-mass flow sensor
E3 Fuel trim bank 1, permissible range exceeded
E4 Fuel trim bank 2, permissible range exceeded
CB Fuel trim bank 2 control limit

What’s next, do I need to replace the MAF sensor? :(

Thanks
 
Bought a smoke machine. Found a leak and replaced the valve cover gasket. No visible leaks after that.
Yellow warning light coming back on after more than an hour with the following codes:
08 Signal, air-mass flow sensor
E3 Fuel trim bank 1, permissible range exceeded
E4 Fuel trim bank 2, permissible range exceeded
BF insufficient heat output, oxygen sensor behind catalytic converter , bank 2.

What’s next? Should I bite the bullet and buy a new MAF sensor?
 
Could you unplug the MAF and see what happens? It will run iirc?
