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.

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.

Suggestion

Unplug the MAF (the car will revert to a standard base setting), if that improves it then fit a new MAF.

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

Hi. I have an 03 996 Turbo that is only boosting to 0.5 bar. The ABS kicks in every now and again for no reason and the ABS/PSM lights show very occasionally. I have read the codes with a fairly basic reader and it showed up the two in the title. No wheel speed sensor codes. Now, could the faults be related? I know MAF's can throw some strange symptoms, (I own Mercedes!!) so I'm after some advice of where to start looking. Thanks

POST 2Original post

Failed MAF will throw up PSM & ABS lights. Unplug the MAF (the car will revert to a standard base setting), if that improves it then fit a new MAF.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Will try that, but the lights coming on happens rarely. Idle can be a little lumpy when cold. Could MAF throw the secondary air injection codes?

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
