Code 73....
« on: 13 April 2010, 19:21:48 »
MAF low voltage, I am guessing that this could be caused by a dirty air filter could it?

Or is it the MAF needing replacing?

K&N Panel filters (or any oiled ones) Kill MAF sensors, do you have engine running issues?

Nope, no running issues after plugs / leads / crank have been replaced.

Just been thrown the code 73. Car runs fine, no daft filters just bog standard one, and it is going very black!  :-[  should have been changed ages ago!  ::)

stick a new air-filter on there and see what happens, black A/F's are not good!
