Product Information

A common source of performance issues and CEL's

Mass air flow sensors are tasked with measuring the amount of air entering the engine via the intake. This mass air flow sensor is known as a hot film sensor which will suffer performance deterioration over time. The sensor is designed to be self cleaning. A faulty or non functioning mass air flow sensor will cause a check engine light and in some cases cause a limp mode. The best way to diagnose a faulty mass air flow sensor is to disconnect it and see if engine idle or performance improves.

Does the Job It's Supposed to Do
My E39 540i was experiencing hot starting issues without throwing a code; I couldn't figure it out. On a whim, I grabbed a junkyard MAF sensor from a Range Rover equipped with the M62 engine, and threw it in my car. Magically, my hot starting issue disappeared. Not interested in trusting a used MAF sensor with unknown age and mileage, I opted to replace it with a new one, and have been happy with the results. It was easy to install, fit perfectly, and seems to be operating as it should.

MAF issues are easy to diagnose if it goes bad, but some marginally acceptable MAFs clears "bench" tests. On the way out, you can expect a fading MAF to cause idle speed issues when coming to a stop or using engine braking if you drive a manual... high fuel consumption, you name it.

This was the exact part that was not functioning on my 2001 BMW 740i. The fit & functionality was just fine.
