    Default Limp mode and loud suction noise?

    Hi, when I accelerate past 2000rpm, the engine management light comes on the dash and the car goes into limp mode, also when doing this, there is a loud suction noise coming from what I think is the o/s of the engine somewhere. Just scanned for codes and it came up MAF or VAF senson (P100 I think the code is). Could anybody point me in the right direction as to getting it fixed? Thanks, Chris, by the way, its a 2.2 DTI 04 plate.
