FIXED!

Turns out the eBay MAF sensor was dead right out of the box. New siemens one fitted (£105 from Euro :shock: :shock: :shock: ), but its back to its usual self.

Lesson learned: never buy mickey mouse sensors!

You can use this to ' accelerate ' thus eliminating the TPS...

I also don't really rate the LMF MAF sensor, try to find a know working genuine one to test on your car, either from a mate or from a member here or PeugeotForum.

Does the 110 have a MAP sensor too?
Ahem....... :roll:

Glad its all sorted.

I do have to apologise for ignoring your advice, however it was only because I watched the MAF sensor output on the diagnostics graph, and it seemed to be behaving as expected, which lead me into investigating other things.

But anyhow, its sorted now, and thank you all for your advice!

Hey, no worries. I had a budget one on my 2.2Hdi which also showed no faults but was a bit lethargic. I fitted a Siemens MAF ( among other things at the same time ) which fixed it, but didn't know if the MAF was at fault or the other things I replaced..... :oops:
