    Exclamation need help with code 32

    can anyone tell me how to fix code 32???

    The car has been running rough on idle but now that has stopped, its now running rough wen we accelerate.(kinda sounds like its missing) the car has been like this for 2 weeks and its peeing us off. This is wat we have done:

    we did a diagnostic test and we had code 23, 32 and 47. we took the ecm out for a night and now its only coming up with code 32. we have replaced the cam censer, crank angle censor, air flow sensor, spark plugs and leads, changed the injectors, took out fuel tank and replaced fuel (we thort we had contaminated fuel but didn't work)

    can someone plz help we are ripping out our hair

    Check you haven't dislodged the air temp sensor connector in the air cleaner box, also double check all vacuum lines to the throttle body. Inspect the engine when it's idling in total darkness and look for high voltage leaks - they will look like blue lightning if any exist....look especially around the coils and under them. Check the plug to the DFI module under the coils is clean and tight. Have you cleaned the throttle body?

    Fuel press reg OK? - check the vac line to it for fuel in lines......no chance the plug leads are on a wrong plug?....try gapping all plugs to 1.0mm.....do all plugs appear the same, like none wet or black?....any chance of an inlet manifold leak or head gasket gone?....no overheating or does car use coolant?....if you have an oil type air filter they can contaminate the AFM....
    Other than that, next thing is a wet and dry compression check to see how the valves are.

    we already changed the spark plugs (brand new), we have to replaced the return breather coz it was brittle and broken. done the inlet manifold check and we used the compression tester and everything is ok. no bent valves. its not overheating and the coolant is good. the filter is a K&N filter, its a dry one in the box.

    We have been working from a workshop manual book and we have done everything in the book but the car is still knackered
