Ok is the engine light on?

Customer replied 371 days and 8 hours ago.

No, nothing

Customer replied 371 days and 8 hours ago.

When you say "Engine Light", do you mean a warning light?

Expert:  CarDoctor74 replied 371 days and 8 hours ago.

Yes the warning light.Also has the mass air flow sensor been checked this will also cause this issue.

Customer replied 371 days and 7 hours ago.

There is no dreaded orange warning/engine check light on and the only sensor I have checked is the MAP.

 

Could this be punctured hoses?

 

Is the car safe to drive in this mode?

Its safe to drive . It can be damaged vacuum lines so check those next . If that's not the issue focus on the mass air flow sensor this can cause this entire issue . These are the next steps. Hoped this helped. Positive feedback and bonuses greatly appreciated.
