Sounds like MAF to me, if the engine management light is on there should be two green block connectors under the steering column that you can connect and the management light will flash in 2 sequences which will tell you which sensor has gone.
Do a google of search on here and there will be info to tell you exactly how to do it.

As said it sounds like a maf but it could be anything.
Didn't think the newages had the two connectors.
Worth buying a cheap fault code reader, Paid around £11 off ebay, Not a bad bit of kit and will work on most models with OBD2 socket.
Resets the check engine light on my little saxo (Cat falling below 95%)

You can tell I'm old school (classic), block connectors must just be on those, thought it was on newages aswell.

Si, there are no diagnostic plugs on the newage like the classics had.
Dean, I've got an OBD II reader if you want me to read the fault memory and clear faults etc.
