Did you torque all the plugs down to 25nm :) as might find 1 is not totally sealed and causing back firing through gap.

Does it only run rough from cold and then smooth out ?

If it was running properly before the work you need to check everything you touched. I'm guessing that you disturbed something when moving the cable tray ;)
Whatever it is... I didn't do it

Popping normally means a lean mixture. Check carefully that you haven't introduced an air leak. :y

I had a similar combination of fault codes on a different vauxhall a while ago.. The hall sensor being the one at fault knocking everything else out of sync throwing up 3+ faults.

...if that helps???
The weather is here... Wish you were beautiful!
