Maf is located just down from the Airbox, check the plug first it may be crud on the connections.
If not the MAF may have got oil or some such on the membrane and need replacing.
Simply a case of removing the jubilee clips and swapping the unit over.

As for o2 sensor, sorry no idea.

Isn't error code 89 the one you always get when doing the paperclip test with the engine off?

Elite now gone.  Bought an X-Type 4x4.  If there had been an Omega 4x4 I would have bought that instead.  We really liked the Omega, but I wanted 4x4.
