Maf
Hi there
On my 2001 V70 Petrol (Non turbo). I recently did a Maf clean, and noticed there is no grill on the filter side of the Maf unit. I believe the grill spreads the air evenly onto the sensor. Would this be considered much of a problem in performance. By the way, I just did a Contactless TPS conversion: amazing improvement in running. Cheers vomog |

That all 3 of my V70's (all non-turbo) had the grille so I'd suspect the one in your car isn't original but I do not know for sure.
Has it been running OK? Please provide details (source, price, impressions) on the contactless TPS you installed. Thanks |

the grill will in no way affect the reading, its about air flow moving through it, the grill is to protect the components and worst case scenario, stop a mashed up air filter getting sucked into the engine etc (ok, that's an extreme example from my Landrover days!).
Would need large vanes to have any measurable effect. |
