dipsomaniac Posted March 23, 2013 Report Posted March 23, 2013 have an intermittant problem where car is running lumpy at low revs. have recently had a new middle section and silencer fitted and don't know if they disturbed sensors. have taken the car back and asked them to check and they said all was ok. have 3 fault codes: 00525 oxygen sensor g39 27-00 implausible signal00561 mixture adaptation limit exceeded00553 maf g70 31-10 open or short to ground intermittent maf code might not be valid as i can't remember if i cleared codes since i temporarily disconnected the maf Quote
smudger Posted March 24, 2013 Report Posted March 24, 2013 have you tried to clean the maf with electrical cleaner???? Quote
dipsomaniac Posted March 25, 2013 Author Report Posted March 25, 2013 no i haven't smudger. didn't think cleaning was an option as can replace for around £80 at gsf Quote
cyborg Posted March 29, 2013 Report Posted March 29, 2013 Have a look at your coil pack,the sensors may be a red herring . If you disconnect the lamda and maf car will run on default settings. Quote
cyborg Posted March 29, 2013 Report Posted March 29, 2013 Please ensure you have also checked for airleaks around maf and clean the throttle body Quote
dipsomaniac Posted April 1, 2013 Author Report Posted April 1, 2013 cheers cyborg. i replaced the coil pack 7 years ago so may need to replace again. car is driving ok at the moment but i have bought new vacuum hoses and intend to replace all when i replace the top coolant hose (ford are saying that they can't supply the top hose as it is now unsupported and vw are quoting 3 weeks) so all good fun.
