(Probably for DLK's benefit)

The MAF should show up at idle if its at fault. At idle, a 2.6 should be around 13kg/hr.  Generally reads low when they start to fail.


Put on a fault code on (unplug something), then clear the fault codes, which will reset trims. Then monitor Long Term Fuel Trims (LTFT) for each bank, and see if they drift from 0%. If they both drift together, and MAF is misreading, be suspicious of the MAF...  ...but rule out airleaks in intake first.

HTH :y

Well kept an eye on the RPM's yesterday slightly lower than normal on tick over, cut out 3 times yesterday whilst driving around, and 2 times whilst in car park, revs are just dropping out when cuts out.

Confirmed MAF at fault, unfortunately, DLK brought a MAF but wrong one 4 pin and not 5, so have ordered one :y, for now have left the MAF unplugged, new one should be here by tomorrow, so no major hardship. Thanks to DLK for his help yesterday in sorting the problem out and confirming :y
