Car hesitates at weird times
Hey everyone. I got the codes:
-P0100
-P0325
So it says it could be a knock sensor or MAF. My car hesitates and bounces at 2k rpm if I rev slowly or drive slowly. Then after 2K the rpms wil randomly spark up to 3K and there will be no acceleration occurring during that jump of RPMs. I don't know if I should replace my knock sensor or MAF.. How much/long does it take for the knock sensor if I go to a mechanic? How much does the sensor cost itself

However, I strongly recommend buying a new one from Courtesy Nissan - they sell them for only $77 + shipping. Then, clean the old one and keep it as a spare.

And you would still be wrong b/c it's unrelated. Go unplug your KS. It's not going to cause any such symptom.

similar bosch looking maf worked
I had a maf problem 2years ago and found out similar looking bosch 5pin maf, cheap OEM one and modified the connector. It woked perfect. The maf was Hyundai santafe's ('04 diesel model ) It was $70. I believe the principle of the maf is the same.

What confuses me though is that when my mechanic cleared the codes and held the gas while trying to Reread it, the first code that came up was the knock sensor. But like the other guys said it isn't the knock sensor cause it doesn't cause the car to jerk or hesitate or jump in revs

Yeah but these guys are saying not to go aftermarket. I'm returning the MAF I got from autozone first and then gonna buy the OEM one.

And after replacing the maf, I would do an ecu reset (not just clearing codes).

Okay guys. So I didn't even do anything yet to the car and it's been a couple days. My check engine light is randomly just gone but the car still does what I mentioned before. & no the bulb did not fuse because I put it into "ON" mode and the check engine light lights up. Does anyone know why this would happen?
