Hi Guys, I am pretty new to this, so please ignore my ignorance.
I have just purchased a second hand Alfa 147 1.9 JTDm 150 on a 2006. I have seen the following error come up on the dash a few times when I start it 'Motor System Control Failure'. I have no idea what this means. I would like to buy a laptop lead to plug into the ECU socket, and view live data. I am happy to purchase the alfadiag software, and was wondering which lead I need to buy. Could somebody please advise ?

The MCSF means there is a fault with one of the sensors. Most probably your MAF sensor. Very common.
