Glad you're getting to the bottom of the problem and sorting the issues

Usually when you disconnect the MAF the system goes into a default running mode and substitutes the sensor reading with a static value which in fact most of the time allows the car to run smoother than if connected...which is also a good diagnosis to prove that the sensor is defective. You could try cleaning it and see how that works (carb cleaner and Q-Tips tends to work)

Hi Ashley...welcome to the Club Good to have you onboard

was thinking that when it starts up it would be on petrol and not LPG so there may be underlying issues on both systems....definitely worth checking codes and data from the ECU to determine what is causing it

lol...sorry about that. Not sure of the best way forward then but maybe worth speaking to your local dealer about what options there were with the car and whether they are all programmed in correctly

Hi Ian...welcome to the Club It does sound like the LPG system is playing up as once it is past the startup phase then the LPG kicks in I would suggest checking that for a defective injector. As for running rough on startup....that could be a completely different issue but not related to misfiring....check all vacuum hoses for leaks which may cause those symptoms.

Wow! both superb cars and great to see such classics as the Granada and Capri in the background. Thanks for sharing the piccys with us

I have found this with quite a few vehicle makes...Audi being one of the worst. The standard Audio / Comms system is outdated as soon as it it new and quite honestly aren't worth the cost to update SatNav or software via disc or download. I would personally recommend replacing the standard system with a quality aftermarket system capable of mirroring your phone functions.
