I ran a Bosch refurb in mine all ok and much cheaper than genuine, just avoid the ebay crap.

The Bosch ones are genuine there exactly the same.... The one I got had the same markings as my original 

Sorry worded it wrong, by genuine I was referring to dealers

Oh okay, cheers, anyone got any input on the cheap equivalents? Because ecp sell one for 30 - 50 pounds, when the cheapest bosch is 70 (If you return your old one) and 90ish without returning your old one.

A lot of people have problems with the non genuine MAFs, they usually fail within a few months

I bought a bosch maf earlier at a cost of £82  :sad: from ecp earlier

Hopefully this should sort out my final fault with the car  :smiley:
