The ones marked not present are old codes, there's only the 0170 that's still there.

Oh I see,

What could be causing the 0170 code? something to do with the MAF, throttle body or is it pointing to exhaust or CAT problems?

Thanks for your help

The 0170 code is a symptom rather than a cause.

Without any current codes to help you identify the problem you need to start looking at the live readings to work out what is going wrong.
