Delphi Product & Service Solutions has added 20 new mass airflow sensors to its engine management portfolio, covering more than 10.2 million vehicles built from 1990 to 2013. Applications cover: Audi, BMW, Chevrolet, Hyundai, Kia, Lexus, Mazda, Nissan and Toyota. Part numbers include: AF10159, AF10162, AF10164, AF10168, AF10176, AF10184, AF10185, AF10205, AF10206, AF10207, AF10208, AF10210, AF10211, AF10212, AF10213, AF10215, AF10216, AF10217, AF10219 and AF10220.
MAF sensors measure intake airflow and send this information to the ECU. When the ECU receives the information from the MAF sensor and oxygen sensors, it makes adjustments to the amount of fuel being injected into the engine to compensate for excess air or excess fuel.
When a Delphi MAF sensor is used in combination with Delphi oxygen sensors, the engine’s air/fuel ratio can be controlled much more accurately, the company states. All of these functions ensure accurate air/fuel ratio for optimal engine performance in any driving condition.
Contamination is a key reason why MAF sensors fail and require replacement, according to Delphi. As air, dirt and other debris get into the sensor, the parts become contaminated and result in failure. Drivers often notice sluggish performance or a more frequent need to refuel.
Delphi offers three reasons to choose its mass air flow sensor line:
1. All-New Products Go Through Stringent OE Testing
Delphi MAF sensors are brand-new, never remanufactured. All parts are tested and calibrated to OE standards using highly accurate OE equipment. By testing to OE specifications, Delphi ensures that the sensors provide accurate readings and airflow output, which helps to reduce comebacks.
2. No Flow Tubes Mean Less Storage Space and a Greener Quicker Repair
Delphi’s direct sensor solution design allows technicians to focus on the part that needs to be replaced. Ninety-eight percent of the time it is the sensing electronics in the probe that fail. By eliminating the need to replace the plastic flow tube, Delphi provides a greener repair solution.
3. In Most Cases Clam Shell Packaging Protects the Product
Shops receive Delphi Mass Airflow sensors in a plastic clamshell, which helps protect the sensing elements from damage.
Inventory will be available, dependent on part number, by the end of the second quarter. Visit go.delphi.com for specific part information.
