Please explain as I have had no feedback to support this.

The Pierburgh maf's are not everlasting and it is possible that Marc.t1s is overfuelling the engine and if less than 12months old, will be replaced under warranty if supplied by me.

If it is, switching off the Synergy maf switch should have less effect than it otherwise would. (with a working PB maf, there would be a big drop in torque below 2500rpm with the maf switch off)

Rest assured, I listen to an act upon all feedback if I feel I can improve upon performance or economy.
However I am aware that some owners are being sold or advised to buy the wrong Pierburgh maf - the 684.09.0 version with an IAT which is meant for some BMWs. It is NOT compatible with the 75/ZT or Freelander TD4 with or without a Synergy 2 fitted.
