Hi guys,
I haven't posted in a while.....but I have a problem! My car has been acting up……I got a code 43 and 64. Knock sensor and oxygen sensor codes. The car is very loud (in a bad way) and is backfiring like crazy. It has no power either. Also, don’t know if it is related, but the ASR light is on. This only happens while driving. Idle sounds fine. So, my buddy brought his “professional” scanner over and he could not see anything. Anyway…long story short, we unplugged the MAF sensor and she ran much better. So, logical thinking would be change the MAF, have my car back.
Does everyone agree with that or could we be missing something?
Assuming the MAF is the culprit what are my options? Should I get a factory replacement? Are there any other “budget minded” things to do when I am doing this? Is there a “performance” upgrade for the MAF….if so what other mods do I need to see the benefits?
Thanks in advance,
-Rick
