Hi,
Can anyone tell me where the MAP sensor is located on a this Panda twinair please. Its been suggested I clean it due to the cars occasional hesitance on full throttle acceleration. Thanks.

Directly below the oil filler cap plug with yellow tab on it, unclip the plug maf sensor is held in with a torx bolt, t25 if memory serves me right, undo that pull it out, i cleaned mine with non residue contact cleaner, but let it dry for 10/15 minutes then put it back in

The map sensor isnt in that photo then its onthe intake manifold

 

[Victormeldrew]

don't know where it is or which one to unplug and clean. They all look the same lol!

Lots of sensors all look like the image of the MAP I've seen but haven't got a clue where the hell it is. Seen an image online that says it's position 'A' in my photo.

Here’s the link to the image I found. Had to use google translate
Says it’s the sensor at the rear, ‘A’ in my photo but need it confirmed before I dismantle and spray clean.

Thanks!

Might be worth clean the maf sensor as well as its simple to do, i used contact cleaner to clean maf sensor and throttle body as well when i had throttle body problem causing eml light and limp mode, its been ok since about 2 weeks so far with the car in daily use

May as well clean it while I’m there.
Got some liqui moly flow sensor cleaner coming. Think I used carb cleaner a few years ago on one of my vans sensors but they’re almost the same cost anyway.

Is there a torque setting for the t25 bolts or just pinched up?
