    MAF Sensor question

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Having issues with my MAF sensor on my 2001 S4 B5. Cant afford to replace it until next friday, when i get paid. Will anything awful happen if i drive with it unplugged for a week?

    I only use it to drive to work ( about a 5 mile drive at an average of 35 mph).

    You'll be fine-Since your MAF is unplugged you'll be using a canned MAF map built into the ECU. Depending on your state of tune you may feel a difference in engine performance- Just stay out of WOT until you replace it....

    What he said, just be easy on it until you replace the sensor, the ecu will work around it.
