Hi. Had ongoing issues with my Seat Leon FR TDI (2007) Originally went into limp mode. Got DPF delete and map done. Then I was told that the turbo had gone. Got that done elsewhere as I got a much better price than the one quoted. Now the exhaust is spewing out black smoke. So I took it back as I was told the map was wrong and it was too fuel rich. I have now been told that it looks like it's the intake air temp sensor (MAP). I just want to know if it's easy to fit and where it's located? Any pics would be a great help. I really don't want to spend any more cash at garages. Would locating and cleaning it solve issues? Finally, I am not that clued up with cars but willing to give it a go. Would it just be the MAP sensor that would need replacing or wires/hose due to the age of the car? Appreciate your time
