Couldn't hurt to change it but really, if it's working, I wouldn't muck with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can even go out by a little. Had me scratching my head for a while. The insides of the e series Map sensor is pretty delicate.I would suspect that newer map sensors are much the same. If you suspect it just buy another one and replace it. Sometimes parts replacement is easiest to get to the bottom of a problem. BTW I responded to the original post.Tocchi, seems like if you have done a conversion maybe not sensor fault.

Luke believes it's an ETC fault, but the obd2 reader will tell us, and then we can implement a solution, either by BF hardware or VCM parameters (Luke's the master here ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
