Now the wife willwear the brakes out quicker

I recon the dust wrecks those MAF as we know the air box & filter set up isnt real good in the disco TD5 but thats another storie.....

Hi Paul,

I haven't heard of any problems at all with the aftermarket ones, and I suspect they are from a similar source, but I just have this thing about genuine parts
That chip is fantastic in the later model auto Td5's, I reckon a chipped auto '03 onwards would be my pick if I was to buy a D2.
Don't worry, "brakes are cheap, lets race"

Angus

HELP RESIDENT GENIUSES!

Ok, after reading this thread I decided to do some MAF testing this morning.

I got the nanocom plugged in. Took the car out to warm it up and checked the readings.

Idle = 48.
constant 60k (flat) = 100
Idle 70 downhill = 150
Full throttle going past 3k = 560

I then cleaned the MAF carefully with a cotton bud and some prepsol. I got a little red dirt off it.

Idle = 52.
constant 60k (flat) = 200
Idle 70 downhill = 200+
Full throttle going past 3k = 500+

Keep in mid the full power readings might not be quite accurate as you really have to watch the road!

Anyway, it was a bit hard to say if it was any better, but maybe I was using a little less throttle. Clearly it's reading nearly twice as much air now at cruise.

What does this mean?

Another question... does the td5 have a throttle butterfly at all?
