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.

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.

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

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

1 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

Outcome without a verified action link

Seems to have solved the problem of judder at low revs as soon as the accelerator was released (imagine a learner drive bunny hopping).

Hi guys, on this photo can you tell me where the maf is. Cheers Chris https://skydrive.live.com/embed?cid=C4D0453189E81136&resid=C4D0453189E81136%21514&authkey=APHlAYovbjQNVdo

POST 2Original post

On your Turbo, you'll find it on the left hand side of the air box. Here are a couple of photos from my book. It is easiest to remove the MAF with the two Torx security screws before unclipping the connector.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Ok cheers, im going to try and give it a clean this weekend.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I've just had a look, mine seems to be 90 degrees out to that pic. it looks like access will not be very good. which maf is best on design911 as there are 4 with varying costs. it did improve when I disconnected.

POST 5Original post

You want the one which is equivalent to Porsche part number 996.606.124.00. Do you have the standard airbox? The only reason I can think that it is in a different position is if you have an aftermarket one.

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

It has been changed by a previous owner, i tried linking the picture but its tiny as the forums have a really small size limit. The ones that came up when i selected my car were: Aftermarket brand for £58.50, Autotec brand £97.50, Bosch £200, Porsche £515. Is there any difference between them?

POST 7Original post

£515 wow that is some price. I would wait for Richard to to advise.

POST 8Original post

If it was me, I would get the Bosch one. The others might well be OK, but I wouldn't take the risk. You'll find that if you buy a Bosch one, it has the Porsche part number stamped on it. How about this: http://www.airmassmeterspecialists.co.uk/PBSCProduct.asp?ItmID=9969837 The Bosch part number is 0280 218 009, so try Googling that as an alternative.

POST 10 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Just changed it this morning, bit of an arse to get access to but i managed it. Seems to have solved the problem of judder at low revs as soon as the accelerator was released (imagine a learner drive bunny hopping). I think i might get a slight increase in mpg as the fuel/air mix should be better.
