Mass air flow meter buddy. Mine was exactly the same (1.0 12v 3cylinder) changed MAF and runs fine now! Hope this helps.

Lol! Maybe every owner of this engine should keep a spare MAF in the boot haha. Wayyyy too common!

Thinking of changing the MAF on mine, should I go for an original Bosch one or a generic one for half the price?
