where is the MAF sensor located. how to clean injectors is that the additives that you will put on the gas tanks.


is this also possible with the valve timing. i just bought this car 7 mos ago. just now this problem appears>.

thanks for the reply dude. :smile:

^^^what he said...

here it is in detail:

1. remove the positive terminal on your battery...

2. unscrew your MAF sensor from the illustration...

3. clean the MAF sensor Fillament with bottled pressure air(the same kind used for keyboards)...

4. put the MAF back in...

5. reconnect your battery...presto you have just done a ECU reset and maf cleaning...

if this fails I would suggest what has been suggested above...clean your injectors...either professionally remove it of first try the additives remember 1 full tank to one full additive bottle...wait till u finish half of the tank and add more this way you prolong the additives going through your system...typically some octane boosters have cleaning solutions with them so those would be good...

if that still fails bring it to the garage...either ways the above mentioned solutions should be don on a regular anyway...I still do the ECU reset even with my stand alone AEM so i am sure you will be fine...
