Yeah unplugged it and it's stop giving issues, looked at the air filter and it's seen better days. So I'll try and replace the sensor and filter. Thanks

If your car is an early one like mine (99 T), unplugging the MAF will cause an engine light and will go into limp home mode.Yeah unplugged the MAF sensor and it runs alot better now, so I'll just replace it and service the car. Many thanks
Position sensor can be checked through OBD, although unlikely to be it. I would really whack it on OBD, even the cheap ones. When you floor it, does the MAF sensor not detect an increase in air mass?
