So....its seems my MAF isnt working properly, I may need a replacement. How much do those go for?....and where could I locate one? Junkyard maybe? Suggestions please!!

 

na you need one from the dealer if im correct its around 200? and about 400 total for them to install and program it. thats what they did to my friends. how the hell did you fawk yours up? CAI?

 

I did that self diagnosis thing, it gave me the code for the mass air flow sensor, but after resetting the check engine light like you are suppossed to the car runs great again. Could it be I just had to reset that?

 

Anyone know?

 

the sensor in the maf probably blew out, mine did when i tried installing a CAI. fortuantely someone had told me that a maf from a 300z works on our cars and i was able to get my hands on one for cheap...

 

if resetting your ecu fixed the problem, you may be fine. Just monitor it. As for a replacement, www.twinturbo.net has an excellent classifieds section.

 

Do not buy one from the dealer. Go to www.car-parts.com, they will have many many to choose from

If your MAF is truely bad you won't be able to drive the car. If you got a MAF code and reset the ECU and the code has not come back then I would not worry about it for the moment

 

It will be driveable, but ony in "limp mode" That is by disconnecting the MAF, you will only get to 2.5k max, but it will get you where you need to get if it's not terribly far. I bought one off of www.car-part.com for $45 shipeed, been on since 8/04, works nicely.

 

i went and did the self diagnosis thing again, 3rd or 4th time now...knock sensor came up as the only problem, how can I go about repairing/replacing this?

 

Do not worry about the knock sensor right now. Worry about the MAF, knock sensor can wait and is not going to cause you any driveability problems

 

So this problem is definatly the MAF sensor then? Regardless that the knock sensor code came up as the only code? I guess ill just get a new MAF and hope for the best.
