Hi All. I need some help with the dreaded "Restricted Performance" The DTC Code I had was P006A. I have cleaned both MAFs and MAP which were dirty but did not solve the problem. I have done a reset by short circuiting the negative and Positive together battery disconnected of course, but still goes into Restricted Performance within a couple of minutes of driving. Looked for leaking hose manifolds but cannot see anything amiss. Any ideas?

Thanks Freelance for the reply. Can you give me any tips as to how to find the leak? Are there any tricks/procedures you can use to find the leak?
