Mass airflow sensor

Hey guys, I’m trying to see what a new airmass sensor would cost and if it’s worth cleaning or just replacing instead. No codes, strictly preventive. I’m running into a brick wall in finding it via online. Looks like part number

2760940148.



any help greatly appreciated!

thanks!!

part number is discontinued, which means there should be a supersession. Maybe Konigstiger can help???

Search ebay (about $80) if you should decide to replace.

When I got my 2010 e350, I took the MAF out and cleaned it. I did notice a difference. A couple of years later I went to clean it again, but as I was taking it out, I broke the mesh screen. So I just ordered a new Bosch one from Amazon. Easy enough.

Thanks guys!

k’ - is there not a OE replacement part number for the sensor in general anymore? I’m a little hesitant to not go full OE for something like this, but may be overthinking it.

i can tell you that on my 2010 e350, BOSCH was the Original part. I think you may have the 2014 which is a different engine than mine, but I think BOSCH still makes the part for that too. But like Konigstiger said, go on eBay and look, it should be there for sale. This is a pic of the original OE MAF that broke on my car:
