Product Number: MAF-072
The MAF-072 is a Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor covering 21 vehicle applications across Audi, Volkswagen, and SEAT, with a fitment span running from 1996 to 2010. It is designed as a direct replacement for worn or faulty MAF sensors on 1.8 T petrol engines across the VAG platform, restoring accurate air-mass measurement to the engine management system.
As a replacement MAF sensor, the MAF-072 restores the engine control unit's ability to calculate the correct fuel injection quantity and ignition timing by providing an accurate reading of intake air mass. A failed or degraded MAF sensor is a common cause of rough idle, poor throttle response, increased fuel consumption, and illumination of the engine management warning light.
The MAF-072 carries an extensive cross-reference catalogue of 44 OE and aftermarket references, including Audi 06A 906 461 C, Bosch 0 280 218 023 and 0 986 280 209, Hella 8ET 009 149-031, Lucas FDM816, Magneti Marelli 213719713010, Pierburg 7.22684.14.0, and Quinton Hazell QM752, among others. This breadth of cross-referencing provides a reliable means of confirming fitment against existing workshop or parts-system records.
Confirmed applications include Audi A3 (8L1) 1.8 T variants with engine codes AJQ, APP, AQA, ARZ, and Quattro derivatives, as well as a further 15 applications across Volkswagen (6) and SEAT (3) models within the 1996-2010 year span. Installers should always verify the engine code and model year against the full application list prior to fitting.
The MAF-072 is supplied as a single sensor unit. No warranty period is stated in the available product data.
