Which MAF sensor ??
#1
Looks like I've got a failing MAF sensor (code 23 - car cutting out all the time) on my UK Turbo MY94.
Having done a search and read a lot of posts, it would seem that I'm looking at a lot of money for a new sensor.
Local dealer says the part no. is 22680AA160 - COMPLETE MAF UNIT @ £220
However, others on this forum seem to suggest that you can use the later type "thin film" sensors - part no. 22794AA010 - JUST THE SENSOR @ £73.51 ............ much cheaper.
Is this second replacement sensor meant for use on MY 99- cars only ??
There seems to be a difference in the number of connecting pins (4 instead of 5)........
Can I just replace the sensor with the newer version or am I looking at replacing the whole unit with the original "hot wire" type sensor ???
hope you can help..........
