FAQs

What is the function of the Air Mass Sensor?

The Air Mass Sensor measures the amount of air entering the engine, which is used to calculate the correct amount of fuel needed for combustion.

Where is the MAF sensor located?

The MAF sensor is typically located in the air intake system, between the air filter and the engine's throttle body.

How often should I replace the MAF sensor?

The MAF sensor doesn't have a specific replacement interval. Replace it if it fails or if it causes performance issues. Regular air filter maintenance can extend its life.

Can I clean the MAF sensor?

You can try cleaning it with a MAF sensor cleaner spray, but be very gentle. Incorrect cleaning can damage the sensor. It's often better to replace the sensor if it's malfunctioning.

What happens if the MAF sensor fails?

A failing MAF sensor can cause poor fuel economy, rough idling, stalling, and reduced engine power. The check engine light may also illuminate.

Is this sensor compatible with my Mercedes-Benz?

This sensor is specifically designed for certain Mercedes-Benz models, including the C-Class (W202) C 180 with engine code M 111.921. Always confirm compatibility before purchase and installation.

What are the cross-references for this sensor?

Cross-references include BOSCH 0 280 217 115, PIERBURG 722684090, and VEMO 30-72-0002.

Troubleshooting

Check Engine Light is on.

Use an OBD-II scanner to read the diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs). If the code relates to the MAF sensor, inspect the sensor and wiring for damage. Replace the sensor if necessary.

Poor fuel economy.

Check the MAF sensor for proper operation. Verify there are no air leaks in the intake system, and ensure the air filter is clean.

Rough idling or stalling.

Inspect the MAF sensor for contamination or damage. Check for vacuum leaks in the intake system.

Engine lacks power.

Check the MAF sensor for proper function. Make sure there are no restrictions in the intake system or exhaust.
