G62: Troubleshooting Performance Issues

Hello everyone.
I constantly have the error code G62 (short circuit to positive) in the memory of my 2000 ALH engine. It usually appears every time I access the memory.
I'll be changing it in a few days, but could this defect really be contributing to the reduced performance?
Okay, the mass airflow sensor (LMM) is now being replaced with the good old Pierburg unit, but is it really true that a faulty G62 sensor could potentially affect the fuel injection quantity?

I'm going to have to start working on it soon, because with its 84,000 km, it's not exactly old yet, but my Golf Variant is having a really hard time keeping up with the Polo, which only has 55 horsepower.

Have you tried searching for it? The answer to your question has been provided many times before. I've even seen it discussed in the logs. Of course, there is a causal relationship.

Did I use the search function?
I've been here for almost a year, just searching...
I can't do the logging right now because my cable isn't long enough, and I need to get a new battery first.
