BOSCH MAF from Amazon?

The whole unit is only $110.

Anyone have experience with one off amazon?? People claim its genuine and it does look like one.

I got mine in Germany and you can see the price is practically the same as what you fond on Amazon. If I have the choice, I will always but parts from reputable parts dealers.

Just ordered this from amazon.

Are there any recomended procedures I need to do before putting in a new MAF?

Maybe reset the ecu?

New "CPS/air-fuel filters/spark plugs", will be awesome combination,

if you don't have SDS, prefer to disconnect the battery before putting new MAF,,

put the MAF, then connect the battery after (15>>30) minutes..

Is that a "Bosch" MAF..?,

Did you get the unit with housing or just the lens..??

I got a return label and will return this for a refund.

Ill order a new one from pelicanarts where I get all my stuff.

I wanted to see if the amazon ones were really legit but I guess they are not.

Dude, maybe Amazon shop sold you a lemon MAF which might was sold to another buyer finding out it was bad then returned back to Amazon shop?

Shop kept the lemon MAF not to lose money on it, they were probably trying to sell it to a village schmuck who doesn't know anything about cars
you did good finding out it was bad!

Part # is correct, but i think this is an aftermarket OEM remanufactured MAF,

cause if it "Bosch" factory MAF, MB part # shouldn't stamped there..!??!,,

also, i'm doubting about the color & the edge of the lens bolts..!>?<!
