A box on the side of the throttlebody causes the problem. That'll be the MAF (Mass Air Flow) Sensor. Pick one up from a scrappy for less than £20 easy. Im not sure if its the Lambda sensor as Matty says..but it sounds about right. Lambda sensor is around the exhaust part of the engine, not the inlet. Most likely to be around the exhaust manifold or further down underneath the car on the exhaust pipe. Even lambda sensors are far far far cheaper than £150-200 from a scrappy. Again, should cost no more than £20
