This is usually a brainless install. Vacuum leaks and damaged MAFs are the usual problems. The MAFs are super delicate, I'd start there.

I say bad MAFs. Maybe they dropped one/them?

Everytime I take mine out I act like a surgeon. I place them in a plastic bag seal that up then wrap a towel around them for cushion and pin then back clear of all work.

Ron 01-23-2012 06:51 PM

I do the same lol. They are expensive!

Swap mafs.

10 months after G3 install I had my mafs replaced, as Service engine soon light was on. I am not making a connection but it happened.

Thanks for the replies everyone and sorry for the delay of response. I'll just called my mechanics to diagnose the car since i've done all of the above. So i'll update soon.

I meant to point that out also. But yea I wouldn't wipe with anything of such nature. Repped

Thanks again to everyone that helped me with the solution. I told my mechanic about those solutions and he tried them all and surprisingly its just the sensors that was dirty..he blowed it off and cleaned ut with MAF cleaner and all went well. I've also installed invidia cbe and the car feels more powerful!:tup:

Cool Iwan72, good to know it was something so minor!:driving:

Great news man. I just did my G3 and I didn't know the sensors were so delicate. I must have gotten lucky because I just let them dangle or I placed them on the engine. I wasn't careful at all and (so far) my Z is running perfect.
