Maybe you are looking in the wrong place.

Re the throttle valve, do you hear any sounds from the front of the engine, when switching the ignition on & off? (Now Sold). 2008 Freelander 2 (Nazca Sand) SE TD4 Auto. Statutory write off & on WOVR for hail damage but still road legal.

The MAF can't return a measured value with the engine stopped, as there's no air going through it to measure.

Now, I have an i6 and I'm pretty sure that it won't start at all unless the MAF is plugged in but your engine is different. |

I believe that the diesels use a substitute value if the MAF is disconnected, rough but enough as a limp home. Should set the engine management light. Tangiers Orange - gone, missing her

That's correct, as a petrol engine needs to know how much air is going through the MAF, so the correct amount of fuel can be added. The MAF on a diesel is simply used to measure the air the engine is consuming, so it knows how much exhaust gas is being passed by the EGR system, so the amount of fuel needed can be reduced. But for normal non EGR running, the MAF doesn't do much. Hyundai Ioniq 5 Ultimate. The family car. 2009 Rimini Red SE TD4. Gone. 2006 Tonga Green i6 HSE. Gone. Audi A5 convertible, my daily driver. 1972 Hillman Avenger GT, the project. |
