JD, would this one work?
Shows the right part number, but my '00 non-S isn't listed as compatible:
PORSCHE MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR METER MAF 3.4L 3.6L 97-05 | eBay
also, this will sound really dumb, but the part number also matches this auction which appears to come with the sensor and the housing for $22!!!!
BRAND NEW 99-06 VW MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR METER MAF 2.8L 0280218017 | eBay
What's the catch?
