Hi John.
It was yes.
The conclusion to our issue was using supermarket fuel. It seems the engine just didn’t like it.

Re: MAP sensor location
Hi RUM4MO
I’m not sure what the cause is. The engine seems to be running fine. There are no misfires.
Someone suggested cleaning the MAP first. Others suggested include:
- running it on the motorway for a good time with premium unleaded fuel
- spark plugs
Any thoughts from your experience ...

MAP sensor location
Hi Guys,
Can anyone help me locate the MAP sensor for my 2010 1.2 Polo (CGP engine).. I’ve uploaded a pic of the engine bay if that helps.
I’m trying to fix a “system too lean (bank 1)” by cleaning the MAP first.
Thanks in advance
