MAF cleaning with Wurth?
When I turned my back, expert had already sprayed the wurth brake pad cleaner to my MAF sensor. It is still working properly but doupt about its rest life time. MAF fails results with engine fails, isn't it?

Brake cleaner shouldn't do any real harm, as it evaporates almost instantly and leaves no residue (if it left residue it would not be used on brakes would it? )
Unless the wire on the sensor has a protective coating that the cleaner may wash off. Which is doubtful, but I maybe wrong.
MAF failure (or partial failure) - if unnoticed does kill engines.
It's a gamble I'm afraid, if the car is getting on a bit or done a mileage of more than 70K then I'd consider a new MAF a wise choice as a matter of routine.
