Ok now we have had it diagnosed, According to the man at the garrage the computer is reporting that the Airflow meter is at fault, however he also said that the engine seemed a little underpowered (even for a 1ltr). So he ran a compression test on it and apparently it is running at an average of 110PSI and the last one he had was running at about 170PSI (I think those where the numbers quoted).
He said that the low compression on the cylinders could account for the computer thinking the Airflow meter is at fault.

So what do you guys think? is he feeding us some grade A bs? or is it true we are likeley gonna need to falk out about ÃƒÆ’Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£500 to have the top end rebuilt and cleaned out?
