Thanks Cobvs,

Just called them, they also need part number,

can someone confirm is this the MAF sensor?

[4ePikanini]

Thanks Marius,

But then I take it its Definitely not a bosch.

What, on the place on above photos, would you consider to be the part number.

Just spoke to Diesel Electric,

They have no electrics for Pajero 3.5 V6

Awaiting feedback from KC Auto.

Hi Ned

In the mean time we may want to investigate these guys as I have had work done by them on both my truck and SWAMBO's Golf 4. Very professional and price competitive

Hi Aslam,

I just phoned them,(KC Auto - 021 six eight three 121 four) Applemist Road, Ottery.
they need the bosch part number, I got a part number from Mitsu LMB183609 (which obviously isn't it.)
They say they can check on the part on the vehicle(about half an hour to check for the part number) Unfortunately, I wont be able to go through this year, I will see if I can check for the part number myself.

BTW They are Loch Road Kenilworth at the back of Kenilworth Shopping Centre

Here are the no's I took off mine;
1st set in top row : 6098203
2nd set below: E5T06071

Could KC Auto test it to ensure it requires replacement?

Regards

Hi there,

Meant to get back last week already,
I spoke to KC Auto, gave them correct details, they came back to me stating they do not provide MAF sensors for Pajero's,
so once again well have to look elsewhere...

I had mine shipped in from USA as the only place selling them was the dealers at over R6k. Ebay may be a viable option.

Wow, 6K, my dealer quoted me 3.5K about a week & a half ago.

Maybe, e-bay is the wy to go, how much was it on ebay?

And I take it this means youve had similar issues, did replacing your MAF sensor help, if so, how, what improvements were you able to measure.

[4ePikanini]

my idle was very erratic and I had an engine that just cut out or lost power momentarily and then back up again.

have a look here for ebay items
