Porsches are one of the most popular car brands on the roads today. They attained that level of popularity through their beautiful designs, high performance, impeccable engineering, and reliability. Simply put, Porsches exude luxury and efficiency. However, to maintain its beauty and performance, you have to take extra care of your car. But you can only do so much, and it’ll still develop faults through natural wear and tear. One problem that is common with Porsches is the MAF sensor failure.
MAF is an acronym for Mass AirFlow. In some Porsche models, the MAF sensor is located underneath the hood and firmly attached to the engine, while others have it slightly attached to the side of the engine. The mass airflow sensor is a black cylinder with many apertures connected to the engine’s system, the onboard computer system (OBD), and the PCV valve. Its primary function is to measure engine airflow and send signals to the OBD.
The role of the MAF is to ensure that the engine achieves proper fuel to air ratio. By reaching the correct balance, the engine will respond with optimum performance and fuel management. If the MAF sensor of your Porsche fails, the ratio of air to fuel inside will become affected and reduce the overall performance.
The overall performance of your Porsche is mainly dependent on the health of the MAF sensor. Hence, when the MAF sensor starts failing, your Porsche will exhibit the following symptoms:
