I have an SL600, and each of my two MAFs is $300 on autohausaz, or $582 at the dealer, and so I don't have the luxury of throwing them out every 6 months like some of you do. So like one of Darwin's apes, I've adapted...

Take a soft toothbrush or a Q-tip and some pure alcohol, then remove the MAF assembly from the car and use these implements to thoroughly clean the sensor element. Then, douse it with CRC's MAF cleaner spray just for good measure, and re-install it in the car.

I think you will find the results to be the same as replacing it with a new one.
Anyone have a photo location for the MAF?

TIA

The air box connects directly over the MAF sensor; dead center in front of the firewall. Remove the air box; disconnect the sensor plug; remove the plastic clamp; pry open the metal clip behind the MAF sensor; and pull the MAF sensor straight up.
