is the a4 v6 and the a4 1.8t maf the same? i have a 2000 a4 1.8t and maf code keeps coming up saying signal too low. The junk yards around here only have v6 a4 no 1.8t al all. Thanks

 

bump.

 

The V6 one is larger diam. Might want to start with cleaning the maf

 

i cleaned it with cnc maf cleaner and still throwing code and rough idle at first but fixes it self after 15sec is the diam the only diff cause i got the 034 intake which allows room for bigger maf

 

is it the same maf wire harness the same and will it mess the air fuel up

 

Stick with the maf for your 1.8. 2.8s are different. I would also check around the maf and intake boot for any cracks. I ended up having to clean and replace the maf plus clean the idle control valve and throttle body. It only threw the maf code once and never popped back up. Imo our mafs are weak and it should be a mandatory maintenance routine to clean them plus your icv and throttle body.

 

running a larger maf will lower the g/s reading and completely change the a/f ratio which would suck. Just replace the maf
