Mass Airflow Sensor

Restore Performance with Accurate Airflow Diagnostics & Repair

Your engine depends on the precise balance of air, fuel, and ignition to perform efficiently. The mass airflow sensor (MAF sensor) plays a critical role in this process by measuring the amount of air entering the engine and helping the engine control unit (ECU) adjust the fuel injection accordingly. When this sensor becomes dirty, damaged, or faulty, it can lead to a wide range of performance issues.

At TLC Auto Care in Kirkland, we specialize in accurate mass airflow sensor diagnosis and replacement, ensuring your engine runs smoothly and efficiently. Whether you're experiencing poor fuel economy, hesitation, or hard starts, our technicians are here to help.

What Is a Mass Airflow Sensor?

The mass airflow sensor is located in the air intake system, usually between the air filter and the throttle body. It measures how much air is flowing into the engine so the ECU can determine the ideal air-to-fuel ratio. A malfunctioning MAF sensor can confuse this calculation, leading to problems like:

• Excessive fuel consumption
• Rough idling or stalling
• Sluggish acceleration
• Check engine light
• Difficulty starting the engine

If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, it’s time to bring your vehicle to TLC Auto Care in Kirkland for a proper inspection.

When Should You Replace Your Mass Airflow Sensor?

The MAF sensor is a durable component, but it can become dirty or wear out over time, especially if you’ve been driving with a clogged or neglected air filter. We recommend inspecting or cleaning the MAF sensor whenever the air filter is replaced, as a proactive step in your vehicle’s maintenance routine.

You may need a mass airflow sensor replacement if:

• Cleaning does not resolve performance issues
• The sensor shows incorrect readings on diagnostics
• It fails an electrical or voltage test
• The sensor is physically damaged

At TLC Auto Care, we use OEM or equivalent parts and perform thorough testing to ensure your new MAF sensor is calibrated and functioning perfectly.
