This.

Use the display code function and it might give you something to look at.

You can disconnect some of the sensors, (ignition off), and see if it tidies up the running - there are fall back settings in the ECU for failed sensors, disconnect them one at a time and see if things improve, some won't allow it to run at all, but that will be obvious, you won't damage anything by doing so.
