is that a green sticker afm or orange? i have both i could let go

[syneptik]

Green, ive purchased a couple second hand ones and each one seems to have its own little fault.

just trying to convince my self to spend the $600 lol.

even a after market one from road and track is $400 ( any one tried theres? ) comes with a 12 month warranty

ill send you both of mine for 50$ they were working perfect on my car

[Guest]

Id be buying a possumlink for the same money and making the coin for a tune on top.

[funkytown]

yer FOOK brand new for that cost..

posters above are good and every reason to trust they say its in good working condition if offering to you for cheaps..

If you are continually getting issues there might some something up with your car / loom. you run a POD by chance?...

[syneptik]

No pod filter,

the issue m having is rough idle, every few seconds sounds like its missing.

and also when i get into boost. sometimes it comes in and out of power. boost gauge doesnt fluctuate or anything, neither do the rpms. just feels like its not injecting the right amount of fuel at times.

the cars still driveable just rather anoying.

also, are gc8 wrx\'s meant to sound quite rough/loud during the rev range? just seems to have quite a un healthy engine noise.

Cheers

I\'d be swapping over a know good 2nd hand air-flow meter (maybe another members if they close by, as it may not even be the issue and stuff paying that much on a hope.

Could be a number of things really, have you tried getting fault codes?

[syneptik]

no fault codes when it misses, 2 days ago i had 22 fault code ( knock sensor ) hasnt come back since though.

[QRAF]

owe really please keep me informed

i\'ve had a similar issue i\'ve just changed my o2 sensor and reset the computer and had no faults since but the problem is still there.

You can often make dodgy AFM\'s good again by simply opening up the plastic cover, de-soldering the copper sheild to get it out of the way, re-soldering all the big connections that you can see and then putting the copper sheild back on and siliconing the plastic cover back onto it.

They usually die due to broken solder joints and its really, really simple to fix. Have done that on both my Subaru\'s when the afm gave me issues and never had another problem with the afm after that.

[syneptik]

yeah ive tried o2 sensor as well. funny thing was a while ago when i changed my air flow meter to a second hand one. it fixed the idling problem for about 2 weeks. but wouldnt boost at all for the first couple days.

its been a nightmare lol.

Does yours do it every day? or only some days?

everyday just when your driving at a constant speed it feels like your driving into wind just a mean surge going on.

No probs. If it works out, then that info is worth about $500 via paypal I reckon haha

That definitely sounds like the 02 sensor. Could it be a dodgy/corroded connection somewhere rather than the sensor itself?

What about vacuum leaks? I dunno if that could cause the same surging.
