Yeah, the engine light's on. What was the issue for you in the end? Was it difficult to fix?

Turned out to be exactly what you said - intake manifold flap control! Honestly, unless you're a really good mechanic, I'd take it to a workshop. It's a bit fiddly to get to, and you might need some specialist tools. It cost me a bit, but at least it's running well now.

Appreciate the insight. I took it to a local garage; they confirmed it's the intake manifold flap control, like you and the error code suggested. They quoted me 465€ to fix it, which stings a bit, but at least I know what's wrong. Thanks again!

That sounds awfully familiar! I've got a Corsa too (petrol though), and had some very similar symptoms a while back. Is your engine light on? Mine was practically glowing! I was convinced it was the airflow meter but changing that didn't fix anything.
