sounds like a duff maff sensor to me. Try unplugging the maf to see if it resolves the issue :)

Not the MAF sensor, pre delivery fuel pressure is low, I would say between 135 and 200 KPa.

So, either a clapped fuel pump, blocked fuel filter or something has come adrift pipework wise in the tank.

I've had that problem, turned out to be a faulty fuel rail pressure sensor.

Good stuff Pete. Had the exact same problem on mine. Maf was playing up so thought id try cleaning it, plugged it in and wouldn't rev just over 2k.
Shame your maf failed again so soon.
