Car still stuttery on idle - the egr blanking plate made no diff. when on for 2 weeks so i took it off since it seemed to use more fuel. This is not a major issue but is the icv for 2.5 ltr petrol common to other engine sizes? - might try a cheap secondhand one as a process of elimination and it will make it easier to find if it is common to more than 1 engine size .

Don't touch MAF, likely to do more damage than good
