But all paid by Audi and since they implemented the relevant technical
bulletin it's quite at that side of the engine.

It's booked in for 6th April for diagnostic. The service guy suggested
it could be a number of different things messing up the mixture.
We'll see.
Thanks to all for your help so far

Well, you might just unplug the MAF and see if the engine performance
gets worse. If the engine behaviour doesnt get worse, then it's IMO a
sign that the MAF is already not working and you might need another
one.
At least on my TDI you could diagnose it like that without damage to
the engine. I can't imagine that to be different at the 1.8T
