awrite folks, well the cars been off the road for about 2 weeks at most because the top radiator hose split, anyway today i replaced the hose went to bleed the system, and when i started the car up it was running pretty **** to say the least, seemed like a missfire or irratic idle, so i checked the ecu for fault codes and 5-3 and 2-3 came up i know 5-3 could be imob or key related and 2-3 is the MAF, but i have just recently replaced the maf and was running fine before i parked up, i took the car a quick run around my street hoping it would clear, but a few times it was shuddering like it was when the MAF was goosed.

Could the replacment MAF also be goosed?

Could the fault code 2-3 be from before when my previous MAF was goosed?

Could it be a misfire and would a misfire always throw up a fault code?

Any help would be appreicated guys and realy gettin close to thrown in the towel with this car

Cheers
