From what i have discovered during my RP issue over the last 3 weeks, start looking at the following...

 

Remove undertray, check that the valve operating the airflow from the intercooler, via its hoses is operating correctly. There is a name for this widget, but it escapes me at the moment.

Remove and check the MAP sensor on the throttle body housing, its a small rectangular sensor at the rear of the unit, held in by one torx screw. NB... DO NOT use electrical cleaner to clean out the contacts, nor carb cleaner as it destroyed mine.

Look for any signs of oil contamination over the injectors on the OS cylinder head cover (remove main engine cover and carefully peel back the injector sound proofing to view)

Check for oil leaks around the bottom hose going to the intercooler NSF, check for the same on the OSF inter cooler.

 

Check for any oil leaks around the base of the throttle body housing, near to the oil filter and coolant housing, this would indicate a split at the rear.

Hopefully, this will put you on the path to enlightenment, i started off with a similar MAF sensor issue, which turned out to be a cracked cam cover, thankfully replaced before i even started replacing sensors like a mad man....

I am sure there will be more additions from members who have suffered similar issues...

Hi, 

so I’m having the same dreaded RP mode on my Xf 3.0. I’m seeing Oil contamination around the injector on driver side. Just curious if you think this is a cracked inlet manifold? When plugged in it’s showing up mass air flow and low boost pressure
