Default A8 in trouble

ok guys and girls,

I ran a VAG test few days ago.
Now, for reminder, I didnt drive my car since March this year as it was unregistrared, just few short drives down the street after engine was on working temp every few days in a week.

I had to replace old batery in June after it died on me.
So, my car was under stress because he lost all electric power.
I am hoping that all those problems on VAG test are results of that.

Here is test result:

Agreed, disconnect the MAF sensor and see if it improves, if it does, you have a faulty MAF sensor.

Can a bad MAF cause O2 sensor codes? Yup.

Its the main sensor just after the airbox in the intake. It should have a large sensor connector, you can't miss it. What i would do is start the car, and while its running disconnect the sensor, if it magically starts running smoother you have a bad MAF.

Oh yeah thats the MAF, i forgot its like a 1.8T engine with it inside the air box, sorry about that. So it ran much better with it disconnected?
