Hi Kenny
Welcome to the forum when you remove the synergy 2 you will have to source a genuine Bosch Maf, as 99.9% of the time the synergy runs with a pierburg maf.

You should be able to sell it on easy as the Freelander guys love them, my self I would not fit one as reports have been that they can damage the HPFP in the long run.

I've taken it off now. Working through overdue service items, so with a bit of luck will get my improved performance that way for the time being . Done all the filters and oil, moving onto viton seals for the leaky intercooler next. Enjoying it so far though, gives me an opportunity to get to know the vehicle.

Holding onto the box for the time being while I work out the next step.

Not been able to identify the MAF yet due to the weird bolts. Will give this a look in due course.

If you just leave it disconnected, the ecu will use default values. If performance is better with it disconnected, it usually means it is a Pierburg MAF, but could also indicate it is a Bosch unit which is faulty or otherwise producing poor output. The Bosch unit includes an air temperature sensor, the Pierburg does not.

Fix a poor handbrake; DIY ABS diagnostic unit; Loan of the spanner needed to change the CDT belts; free OBD diagnostics +MAF; Correct Bosch MAF cheap; DVB-T install in an ex-hi-line system; DD install with a HK amp; FBH servicing.

I've taken a vow of poverty. To annoy me, send money.
