Air Flow Meter

[Saint George]

I've finally found why my cupra is losing power at 5000rpm... Need a new Air Flow Meter....

Is there anyone out there who can advice on the best place to get hold of one as i've been quoted £250 by seat for part (£197 for part) and fitting..

Is the price about right??

How easy is it to fit??

Need to do this quickly i've had enough of being overtaken by muppets...

Not sure on price..

I couldn't get past a Glanza yesterday, i'm sure there is something a miss with mine. I'll just wait and see what Vag-Com has to say about it all.

I need a boost gauge really as well

mass air flow meter is approx £80 from ecp plus a £30 surcharge until you return your old unit

My mate has MK 4 golf gti (turbo) that had the same problem... His costs were were £110 with £30 back when he sent the part back...

Could not understand why it was £197 through Seat

Got to get it sorted i'm tired of Chav's smiling when they go by.....

I picked one up from VW this morning, £75+VAT exchange and a 2 year warranty, not bad at all

i just bought one from VW yesterday for £71 + VAT, had to give them my old maf tho.

2 year warranty, thats good, did you have to give yours in?

It used to be you could get new MAF's or exchange (reconditioned) MAF's. It sounds like the £197 is for a new one but I think I am right in saying you can only get exchange ones now. So your dealer either being naughty or had some new MAF's left on his shelf for a while and trying to get rid of them without losing money.

yeah had to give my old one back. said if i have problems within the 2 years to just take it back with my receipt and get another exchange

you need vag com to find out of maf is dodgy?
