Hi,
I tried cleaning the MAF sensor on my car having a 1.6 TDI (CLNA) engine. I used CRC MAF sensor cleaner, which, as per CRC, can be used on both hot-wire and hot-film sensors.
I do not feel it really helped after spraying on the sensor, as instructed. I also noticed the dirt along the inside of the enclosing plastic, was still left as is, even after spraying the cleaner on it and having it dry away.
I manually wiped down the dirt from there, without touching the sensor at all.
However, the spray did clean the dirt on the white part of the sensor.
Is it the case that the spray never actually reached the film, as it seems to be concealed?
I am including some pictures of the sensor.
