I am looking for a MAF that is modifiable, i.e. a 078 133 471A one, but I have the older type 4-wire small body MAF on my car.
I'm confident that I can suss out how to wire a 3-wire MAF to my 4-wire system, but I can't seem to find one (other than at the stealership).
Anyone out there know of a reasnoable source of Audi 2nd hand parts in the UK ?
OR -
Anyone know what other vehicles use the same MAF ?
Cheers

www.allaudi.co.uk
www.vw-audi-specialists.co.uk
www.vagparts.com but for new parts
also these premium rate 0898 dial a part numbers are excellent if you are prepared to pay 4 quid for the call.....they have a central database and the breakers call you direct with no obligation....very cheap parts too....worth a try

did you splice over to the correct 3-pin plug for the new 3-plug MAF? I was thinking about doing the same project (because I have a crappy 4-pin MAF), but wasn't sure if it was possible. Someone mentioned that the purposes of each wire is identical between the two MAF's, so I thought I'd gamble and buy a 078 133 471A to try.
You have a UrS4 stage 3 MAF then?
wow, if you've done what I think you've done, this Rocks!
check yah later

unscrew original sensor from original maf, unscrew new sensor from new maf, swap sensors, install new maf with old sensor in car.
i bought my maf&sensor used from http://www.autox.biz/. its just a later style one, i haven't upgraded yet ;o)
