Read evidence and context

Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Discussions that performed work without a confirmed outcome: 1

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

I think there's supposed to be a spacer or something between the actual maf sensor and the airbox because the way it is now, the maf really doesn't want to screw in, and there's some open gaps around the sensor as well, the end result being my car doesn't want to run (or barley idles for that matter).

(funny, the car runs and idles fine with the maf disconnected, but won't run with the maf in and the small air leak)

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I think I messed up and lost a piece of the stock airbox which I now need to re-install. Can someone who has a 996 check on their airbox and send me a picture of the area around their maf? I think there's supposed to be a spacer or something between the actual maf sensor and the airbox because the way it is now, the maf really doesn't want to screw in, and there's some open gaps around the sensor as well, the end result being my car doesn't want to run (or barley idles for that matter). I checked on my PET but its showing an "Item 12" with no part number in the catalogue :'(

POST 2Original post

Omar, Are you missing the O-ring? My PET has part #12 listed as an O-ring. The part number 986 606 925 00.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

hmm..ok i'm definitly missing the O-Ring and maybe that's why it isn't sealing properly. i could have sworn there was also a plastic piece that goes in between where the o-ring and the airbox are, but i could be wrong and that might just be for the EVOMS intake. i'll go order the o-ring and then try again i guess. (funny, the car runs and idles fine with the maf disconnected, but won't run with the maf in and the small air leak)
