MAF Replacement

[schnellman]

I'm confused because my indy says his source is $320. Suncoast says $520. Pelican Parts says $87 rebuilt or $104. I know prices vary, but this is too much of a variation.

Schellman, when I looked up the Bosh MAF's on Pelican I found prices ranging from $236.25 to $254.25 (depending upon year) - and remember, these are Bosch OEM and not from the Porsche parts catalogue. Suncoast sells only Porsche parts.

Bosch makes the MAF sensors for Porsche. If you buy an MAF sensor from a dealer expect to pay $600 plus. As an option, you can purchase what is essentially the same sensor from Bosch at a fraction of the price (for a 2.7 around $225 to $250) . The only criticism that I have heard about buying the Bosch sensor, is that quality control can fluctuate depending on what factory the sensor was made in. Apparently, Bosch has numerous factories of their own around the world, as well as they out source from other manufacturers too. Personally, I've not heard of anyone receiving a bad Bosch sensor. And, in most cases a seller should honor Bosch's 12 month warranty.
