I think the above is THE Most common fault with engines in Corsa's! I'd say it could either be air-flow meter, idle control stepper motor or Throtle position sensor... | |

No I was just going along the motorway one day and my car suddenly lost power for a second and developed a flat spot in acceleration around 2krpm in all gears. The engine manegement light came on all the time and it started idling crazy from then on too. | |

all the air flow meter is for to tell the ECU how much air is being taken in. its job is to record air, so having any amount or air forced into it is what its there for, no matter how much there is....... | |

one u fit the induction kit reset the ECU, did u do that? An induction kit wouldnt cause that to fail, but to get best peformance you need to reset the ECU. | |

Would my induction kit cause my air flow metre to fail and need replaced? |
