Hello, I have some problems with my corsa, it shakes on idle and stalls on lower revs, I have to wait a bit for the turbo to kick in. At 3000 rpm usually kickes in now. I watched some forums and a lot of people have problems with the MAF sensor.
After I disconnect the MAF, can I start the car? How will the car change or what symptoms to watch? How do I know is dirty or faulty? If dirty/faulty I want to take it out and clean it(would this do any harm to the car?)/ Change it. Any advice?
Thank you

We don't have that car in U.S. But take duct off to engine and clean throttle plate on both sides and iac hole with choke cleaner. Then clean maf with same stuff, make sure maf is dry before starting car. Then have car scanned for codes maybe we can help then when youget back with code.
