1 Fault Found:
17536 - Fuel Trim: Bank 1 (Mult): System too Lean
P1128 - 35-10 - - - Intermittent
Readiness: 0000 0000

Searching the archives I came across lots of people saying bad MAF for this code. I also learned that logging block 211 would show actual vs. calculated MAF. That's what this log shows, which was logged under full boost in 3rd gear to just over 6000 rpm. The highest Actual MAF reading I've seen on the two FATS runs I've done is 176. I'm running stock. Is this a bad MAF here? If not, what else might I be looking at? TIA.

looks almost completely dead.

that makes it look "dead?" Just trying to understand as much as possible here.

That along with the code you threw would seem to mean your MAF sensor is dead.

Thanks! Can you tell me where the "calculated" value come from?

PSmalls::DoggieStyle

I have no clue. Personally, I think block 211 is crap. Mine have never matched up.

I noticed that Clairparts has refurb MAF sensors for $100 right now. Any thoughts on these?

SLPR S4

Good point about the elevation ;o)

SLPR S4

is a clue that the MAF is dead combined with the VERY LOW AIR FLOW!

Do you know how to unplug the MAF?

If you unplug it, the car should run MUCH STRONGER!

If it does, I'd go buy a new MAF.

Anyone concur on this?
