Ok, as the title suggests, i have a loose connection on my 2.4 stilo. Missus was driving car all day, then we both went out for grub in the evening. a few pints and a rib eye steak later, returned to the car and wouldnt start. so i kicked her out of the car and tried again. It cranked but wouldnt fire, after a couple of seconds i had the "loose connection" fault flashing at me. i played with as many plugs as i could see, and still the same. then i checked the MAF sensor, it was slightly loose in the induction kit, but was electrically connected. but when i tried turning it over it started. Ive since seen the same fault 4 times. but drove ok today with no fault. Ive searched the threads on here but nothing suggests the the mass air flow sensor could be at fault?
So just wondering if anyone knows if the MAF sensor failing, or loose, could cause the above? otherwise, it could be the battery or crank sensor as ive read. The battery is possible, as she was driving the car all day, but only short journeys.
