Default 2008 A6 3.2L Mass Air Flow Sensor?

Our 2008 Audi A6 3.2L is throwing the code P0172, suggesting the MAF. I’m unable to find this part online, only for th V8 4.2L. Does this part not exist for the V6? I suspect it’s a different sensor or sensors for this vehicle. Thanks!

Audi 3.2s dont have one, they use that info from MAP sensor, just google search "audi 3.2 map sensor"...
I think that you would get the code for map if there is an issue about it.. you can try to clean it a bit, but that code is coming from O2 sensors telling you whats up in the engine...bank one...too much fuel, not enough air. Might be one or some of your fuel injectors leaking? Injector cleaner? O2 doesnt read correctly?
