    yeah crank sensors go a lot but the AFM goes a hell of a lot more than those.

    it will still be in limp mode but will reset itself after a few seconds and return to normal if those are the problems.

    yeah really easy, it's at the back of the engine under the inlet, get on your back under the car and you'll see it right away.

    Wants plugging seeing what the ECU says

    No point chucking bits as it as you still appear to be doing

    Last car I looked at like this had a blocked exhaust
