If your car feels sluggish, hesitates when you accelerate, or is suddenly getting terrible fuel economy on your Malaysian road trip, you might not have a major engine problem. The issue could be a dirty Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor, a critical component that tells your engine how much fuel to use. MyMechanic offers a convenient mobile MAF sensor cleaning service to restore your car's lost power and efficiency.
The MAF sensor is located in your engine's air intake tube, right after the air filter. Its sole job is to measure the precise mass of air entering the engine. It does this by heating a tiny, delicate wire and measuring how much that incoming air cools it down. This data is sent to the engine's computer (ECU), which then calculates the exact amount of fuel to inject for the perfect air-fuel ratio.
Over time, fine dust, pollen, and oil vapor can bake onto the sensor's delicate wire, insulating it. A dirty sensor can't accurately measure the airflow and will send incorrect data to the ECU. This leads to a host of performance issues:
Before you consider paying for an expensive new sensor, a professional cleaning is all that's needed in over 90% of cases. This is a delicate job that requires the right tools and chemicals.
MyMechanic offers this as a mobile service. Our technician will come to your location in Malaysia, carefully remove the MAF sensor from your vehicle, and use a specialized, residue-free cleaning spray to safely dissolve the contaminants from the sensor wire without causing damage. After reinstallation, the results are often immediate, with smoother idling and restored acceleration.
