MAF is just after the airbox and has a clip plug in it, not sure about the others. Do a search for MAF on here there are pictures and details of how to either clean or replace.

The turbo, or the turbo actuator, is sticking! ( if its a 110 HP)
Try a search on turbo problems and you will find some nice pic`s about how to fix this!

the 110 only madeit into the elegance and L&K models not the classic and ambiente.

There is a pressure sensor on top of the intercooler, remove drivers headlamp for access, the n75 valve is on the passenger side bulkhead, and there is a sensor on the inlet manifold, which may also be a pressure sensor. The VNT mechanism could be sticking, have come across this on an Ambiente 90hp before.
