FAQs

What does a Mass Air Flow (MAF) Meter Sensor do?

The MAF sensor measures the volume and density of air entering the engine. This data is sent to the engine control unit (ECU) to determine the correct amount of fuel to inject for optimal combustion.

What are the symptoms of a failing MAF sensor?

Common symptoms include a rough idle, hesitation during acceleration, poor fuel economy, increased exhaust emissions, stalling, and the illumination of the Check Engine Light.

Can I install this MAF sensor myself?

While physically possible, the warranty for this part is only valid if installed by a qualified mechanic. You will need to provide proof of professional installation.

What OEM part numbers does this sensor replace?

This sensor replaces OEM numbers 5WK98101, 6519050500, 6450900048, A6519050500, and A6450900048.

How long is the warranty period?

The product information does not specify the warranty duration, but it is contingent on installation by a qualified mechanic and requires proof of installation.

Will this sensor fit my Mercedes-Benz?

It fits specific models and years: A-Class (W176, 2012-2018), B-Class (W245, W246, 2005-2018), C-Class (W205, 2014-2018), GLC (X253, 2015-2018), Sprinter (2006-2018), and Vito Tourer (2014-2018). Always confirm your vehicle's compatibility.

What is the significance of Ts16949 and ISO9001 certifications?

These certifications indicate that the manufacturing processes meet internationally recognized standards for quality management and consistency in the automotive industry.

Troubleshooting

Check Engine Light (CEL) remains on after installation.

Ensure the electrical connector is securely plugged in. Verify the sensor is the correct part for your vehicle model and year. Have diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) read and cleared by a mechanic. Confirm the MAF sensor was installed by a qualified professional as required for warranty.

Engine performance has not improved or has worsened.

Double-check that the MAF sensor was installed correctly and all air intake connections are sealed. A dirty air filter or other issues in the air intake system could also be contributing factors. Consult a qualified mechanic to diagnose further.

Difficulty fitting the sensor.

Ensure you are using the correct part number for your vehicle. Verify no obstructions are present in the air intake housing. If resistance is met, do not force the installation; consult your mechanic.
