Bosch Mass Air Flow Sensor P/N:0280218190
Keep the air-fuel metering accurate on your Audi or Volkswagen with the Bosch Mass Air Flow Sensor 0986280216. A MAF sensor measures the mass of air entering the engine so the ECM can calculate and deliver the correct amount of fuel; when it drifts or fails you may notice rough idle, hesitation, stalling, poor fuel economy, or a check engine light — signs this sensor may need replacing. It drops in for the 2007-2010 Audi Q7 (V8-4.2L), 2001-2005 Volkswagen Beetle (L4-1.8L / L4-2.0L), 2001-2006 Volkswagen Golf (L4-2.0L), 2008-2010 Volkswagen Golf City (L4-2.0L), 2001-2005 Volkswagen Jetta (L4-2.0L), 2004-2006 Volkswagen Phaeton (V8-4.2L), and 2004-2009 Volkswagen Touareg (V8-4.2L).
The V8-4.2L applications (Audi Q7, Phaeton, Touareg) use two sensors per vehicle; this listing is for one.
