Default 2013 ST MAP sensor

Hi people

Looking for some help on the wifes ST.

Got a service spanner light up. Codes say MAP sensor fault. Got no guts, won't accelerate.

Removed MAP sensor and cleaned. Slight improvement. Still getting the spanner/code. Still no herbs. Lasted 5 minutes and back to how it was.

Replaced MAP sensor. OK for 45 minutes or so, spanner came up and died in the **** again.

What's the next step?

I think I've found the problem!

After a mechanic poured over it this arvo, I had a fiddle around myself.

A badly blocked air filter !!

Yes, the mechanic who looked is the one who serviced it last.

And it will be the last.

Hoping the fix remains good. Tomorrow will tell.
