right guys my mate has a saxo vtr with a 106 gti conversion and had used the vts wireing loom but used the ecu, transponder, key and the black key thingey off a 106 gti well that was fine for a few months but it has now encured a missfireing prblem its not the head gasket as it has been checked its had a new fuel rail as the other one had snapped and its also had to have a second coil pack. Now what i cant understand is why it is missing like a twat ? has anyone else had the same problem ? could you please let me no asap as trying to get it sorted asap

HT Lead fail. haha, Mass Air flow sensor, tells ECU how much air is coming into the engine and adjusts the fuel to suit.. no idea where they are on saxos.. just a common 306 problem that causes all sorts of problems with misfiring

nope, its just like any other sensor, maf/map sensor is usually located on the air intake
