Hello everyone, my neices friend had a small head on bump recently, no major damage but the car has run rough since, no codes show on forscan but unplugging the maf "sort of" solves the problem, obviously this isn't ideal as the car is reverting to a default state without any maf data... 

 

I'm thinking it's got a vacuum leak but I can't see anything obvious, is there a way to check on forscan before she has to fork over to a garage? Live data comparisons maybe? 

 

Thanks in advance! 

I forgot to add we tried a new maf but it made no difference. 

Probably damaged the intercooler.

That did cross my mind but I was hoping for a cheaper, easier, more student friendly fix 😂

@TomsFocusA winner is you! 

My brother in law once had the misfortune to hit a badger and same thing happened.

Your brother in law was very lucky that the badger didn't hit him back. They have a powerful right hook 🤣

It did quite enough damage to the car! Mind you, the unfortunate critter came off worse, RIP.
