I found out on the internet how this sensor works and what's its purpose and everything. Is it true that it costs a lot of money??! |

I wouldn't say a lot - rather a sh*t load ... |

[color=blue]Air flow sensor for a 1500 (don't know your engine size) is in the region of £702, including VAT, not sure what your tax situation is in Malta, but without VAT its £598.50 [/color] |

Mine is 1500cc. In Malta VAT is 15%. Can these things get fixed though, instead of replaced? |

nope, i think they are a bit tricky to fix. your best bet is finding sum1 braking a car on ebay or finding one at a scrap yard. Arty |

What exactly is wrong with your car that leads you to consider a new MAS ??? I've seen it a few time; people aren't sure what is wrong, so they say "Oohh - must be the MAS meter ?????". Frequently it turns out to be something else ... |

Wothing wrong actually. but i discovered that in 4 years the previous owner never replaced the air filter so i was worrying that it would mean the EOL of the sensor might be even closer than usual. I'm only considering possibilities in case of such an eventuality. |

An old air filter would just get clogged up and let less stuff through, so that shouldn't have affected the MAS. Mark |
