I bought what was represented as "the upgraded MAF, doesn't foul as easily as the old ones" at a local independent tech's garage sale. Screaming deal at $80, new in box. P/N is 986.606.125.01 and it does have a modified tip, compared to the P/N 996.606.124.00 which I've replaced twice now in my '00 'S' model.
Then I was told that some DME reprogramming would be necessary to use this part. Does anyone have any experience using this upgraded version MAF, or know if reprogramming is necessary?
Thanks,
Andy
