Hi Guys!! Thank you for this wonderful wonderful forum that i get to save RM1,000 by doing something myself.My car (E46 320 ci) was diagnose with a fault in the MAF sensor. the car still ran... but have the below symtoms,1) slight hill it will change between 2nd and 3rd gear every second.2) idling screwed up when u come to a halt.3) petrol consumption shoot up.so i was adviced by mechanic to change the MAF sensor, only RM1,000:stupid::stupid::stupid:i then read the forum...cleaning the maf sensor bla bla bla by our good samaritan members.4pm, i snake from the office:listen: called up BROTHER AMPANG branch to confirm they have a CRC MAF cleaner for sale. yep. they do.So its RM37went there, jam like shit as it was raining today. Got it.... For those ppl who dont know where it is, you just need to go ampang point... for another 2-3 km, brothers is on the right hand side of the road (Provided ampang point is on your left)GOT IT. Went home have a nice dinner , open bonet and pray to jesus christ that i dont fuck things up.Took out the air box in 3 minutes FLAT.took the MAF Sensor out....looks delicate... put the straw on and spray very carefully....then ballz got bigger...spray like a mad man until flooded
let it dry while watching discovery channel.after 20 minute put back....start the car...hopefully no check engine light on.1) immediately i reverse the car it felt different. 2) warm up the car.... low end torque was great... it changes gear on straight road at like 1800rpm with little trottle...whoa...good feeling...like a BMW.3) warmed up... step on it...the sounds seems tighter !!... and goes thru the rev VERY SMOOTH.4) Butt dyno tells me there is some power increment all rev range.5) come home , log on , type this thing to thanks ALL TAIKOR :top::top::top::top::top:6)Clean my shit before i get F'ed.7)Good sleepi still have a full bottle, if anyone wants to use... i shall pass this on for someone to benefit.conclusion,1)SAVED RM1,000.2)im NOT a DIY guy, yes i found it a PIECE OF CAKE.CHEERS
