Question Limp mode after ECU Reset??

My car was running lean when on boost. So I done a ECU reset (No error codes)

After the reset I went for a drive, now the car only boosts about 5-6psi, instead of 10-11psi

I have cleaned the Boost sol and made no difference.

Car is happy to rev over 4000 rpm

Is it true it takes about 20 miles for the car to learn the new map??

MAF was changed about 9 months ago.

Any ideas???

When the car has reached normal operating temp the afr meter dances from lean to rich (Keeps on dancing)

When in limp mode and with the low boost (0.5psi) the afr showed rich on the afr. Does this indicated the lamda sensor is Ok?

Car doen't cut out when the MAF is dis-connected. You get a slight drop then the engine picks up back to normal.

I assume this indicates the MAF?

Are the new MAFs worse than the replaced ones???

Seems to be a common theme ................ keep your old MAF and save yourself buying a knackered one!?

The car is out of Limp mode.

Going to the dealer this afternoon to check the car on Select Monitor.

I still have my old maf, so I sill give that a try before I buy a new one.
