Ford G6 check engine light power loss

Hey, got a problem with my 2014 Ford G6, gasoline engine. The check engine light keeps popping on, and the car feels like it's lost a bunch of power. Engine response is sluggish, and I'm burning through gas like crazy. I'm thinking it might be the MAP sensor – any thoughts?

Sounds familiar. I've got a G6 too. Had similar issues a while back. Have you checked for any vacuum leaks? That was the culprit in my case; big vacuum leak.

A vacuum leak, huh? Interesting. Where exactly was the leak, and did it throw any specific codes?

Didn't catch any codes myself, but the garage did when they hooked it up. Honestly, couldn't tell you exactly where it was. Best bet is to get it checked out by a shop, they'll find it quick.

Turns out you were right, it was a vacuum leak causing the MAP sensor to go haywire. Cost me 235€ to get it sorted. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!
