[s-cars] SWM ISO MAF

[Paul Friedenberg]

I had a MAF fail in my 200, and the car would start fine, idled fine, but if
I got into the boost at all, it would stumble severely. I would say it is
not your MAF.

>Fellow Audiots,
>Here's what I got:
>MTM 1+ with a possible failing MAF.
>Symptoms:
>(1) On startup, takes a few cranks to get going, then
>revs will pop to 1k, drop below for a split second,
>pop up and then stabilize.
>
>(2) When I popped off the lower IC hose last month, I
>heard a whoosh of escaping boost and the car stalled.
>Shouldn't it go into limp mode?
>
>(3) Sometimes, I get A/F readings off of the Autometer
>(mostly when it's wet out) that are quite sporadic
>(i.e., 5 LED's on at once)
>
>(4) I did drive the car with blown hoses more than I
>should have...this includes the intake boot from the
>airbox to turbo to MAF.  Could this have taxed the MAF

>Does anyone have a spare lying around, as I'm leaving

>Should I just take hottie and show her how forgiving
>the ecru can be when you're stuck on the side of the
>Queen Elizabeth Expressway?
