i have a 01 max manuel .....and last week a went to dealership and the guys told me that if i put a cold air intake in my car i can break my mase air flow (650$)

is it true
thx

 

From what i have heard, the 01's had the strongest mass' out there. 2002 and beyond, yes they tend to go bad, but they are usually replaced by a stock replacement or a 01 mass. Dont quote me, but i believe its not a direct replacement either. But since you have an 01 you shouldnt have to worry.

 

as extensively discussed on here...no it won't.
If you have an oiled filter (K&N, etc), over oiling COULD cause a problem. But the problem is the oil...not the intake itself.
I had a K&N for 3 years with no problems.

 

im quoting you to say that you are wrong

 

Dude, $650 for an 01 MAF? even if it does break, it's like $100 anyway, dont let them rip you off.

 

yeah.. on that,...^^^^^^^^^^,.. pretty sure there even cheaper on custommaxima or one of those sites.. like 85 or something

 

'01 have a strongest MAF, i blew mine on my '02 and did the '01 swap for under a bill

 

you mean mase the rapper ?



hehe


I got my 01 MAF from my local dealer for $100 .

Transfering the little temp resistor or what that is was kind of a pain , but the cars runs mint.

 

piel98 is in Canada I believe, parts can be a lot more expensive up there, but probably not 650 expensive.

 

Before I found this place (Thanks God), stealership charged me 650$ to change the MAF on my 2k Maxima.

Lesson learned...

 

"100$" ???? Where? Used or New?
I need to buy one, link me!

thanks,

 

Have you read ANY of this thread?

 

for some reason MAF tent to be very expansive in Canada.... not that they try to rip u off..... i think it might be the stupid air care system...

 

03 MAF's aren't bad, IMO.

 

I have an 03 and I am running on an 01 MAF with the IAT swap. No problems. I paid $104 from the stealer for the 01 MAF part number 22680 2Y001.

 

I actually have/keep one in my trunk tool box.

 

What part was wrong? The whole thread seems to have 2001 maf (i know i used the wrong word first time) And its not a direct replacement, you have to switch over some sensor.

 

thx for your time and answer
