#1: Where's the MAF sensor on a '99 gti? Author: D4NTP, Location: Not Leeds or its surrounding areas!Posted: Thu Feb 10, 2011 12:33 pm ---- Just to confirm, the mass air flow sensor is the little white/grey plastic plug in the bottom of the inlet with the orange resistor in it?
Secondly, where is best/cheapest/quickest place to get one from.

Looks like

#6: Re: Where's the MAF sensor on a '99 gti? Author: D4NTP, Location: Not Leeds or its surrounding areas!Posted: Thu Feb 10, 2011 1:00 pm ---- Well i didn't fit it so you've got me wondering....but how the hell would it run right without it....
#7: Re: Where's the MAF sensor on a '99 gti? Author: Lee, Location: EnglandPosted: Thu Feb 10, 2011 1:02 pm ---- Mine ran fine for ages without mine working. Not all cars have them anyway.
#8: Re: Where's the MAF sensor on a '99 gti? Author: D4NTP, Location: Not Leeds or its surrounding areas!Posted: Thu Feb 10, 2011 1:07 pm ---- Could do with hereing from anyone with an induction kit fitted, mines appears to be the cheap one off ebay. Comes straight out from the plastic inlet and has an S to the filter behind the fog light. Definately no black plastic air flow meter!

Just to clear this up, the MAF in the picture is not the same as the MAF on the '99 gti, the MAF on this is located in the plastic inlet and is held in by a 8mm set screw. A combinaion of Ebay and Google has pointed this out.
#10: Re: Where's the MAF sensor on a '99 gti? Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Thu Feb 10, 2011 2:21 pm ---- There is no MAF sensor on the GTi. It uses a map sensor and throttle position sensor to calculate load on the engine.
#11: Re: Where's the MAF sensor on a '99 gti? Author: D4NTP, Location: Not Leeds or its surrounding areas!Posted: Thu Feb 10, 2011 2:24 pm ---- Well i wish you'd have commented yesterday and saved me a lot of time and effort!
#12: Re: Where's the MAF sensor on a '99 gti? Author: Lee, Location: EnglandPosted: Thu Feb 10, 2011 2:32 pm ---- I got that from the Bosch Part Catalogue for the EW10JP4 engine
Must be fitted to like the 307 then or something.
#13: Re: Where's the MAF sensor on a '99 gti? Author: D4NTP, Location: Not Leeds or its surrounding areas!Posted: Thu Feb 10, 2011 2:36 pm ---- Yeh i looked on google images and saw that pic approximately 1.56million times, and thought....sh@t the tool who had the car before me has done a bodge job and chucked it!
Still having hesitation issues though....

Is that true for the 180? Been told by the garage mine needs replacing?
#15: Re: Where's the MAF sensor on a '99 gti? Author: Jake86, Location: BoltonPosted: Sun Dec 29, 2013 1:00 pm ---- Yeah, that's true for the 180. It has a MAP sensor on the throttle body and needs a different sensor to a normal GTi.
