Air mass meters do not get dirty , for one they are fed with clean filtered air and also they clean themselves when you turn the ignition off . The number of £350 air mass meters i have seen destroyed by cleaning in my career is astonishing .

I have rechecked the throttle housing plug and it appears to be firm with only the slightest wriggle. Its feels very firm to disconnect and reconnect and the plug looks clean and dry inside.
My MAF was soiled with oil/grease, so I do not know why this would occur when you say it is only supplied by clean air. Theres lots online about clean MAF and throttle valves, so whats causing that black carbon like a deposit?
My airbox and filter is clean as a whistle. Why are MAF £350? A Bosch replacement on mine is circa £25 and took about 40mins to remove and install.
