Hi,

I have a 2005 S40 2.4i. A recent diagnostic indicated the mass air flow sensor was faulty. I've heard these can get fouled and just need cleaning. How do i locate and remove the part for cleaning? I figure it's between the air filter and intake manifold, but don't know exactly where. Any special tools needed? Thanks...

 

It is the sensor right after the intake filter box. it is attached to it.
No special tools needed

 

how do we clean it? like with what kind of tools? thx

 

They sell MAF sensor cleaner in spray cans. Find it at a local store, and spray and let it dry.

Something like this (Click Here)

 

Cool! I didnt try to clean the MAP sensor but I will know next time thx! Instead, I brought it to the dealer and something is going wrong and pretty much weird...
