Cruise In March - Take 2

[pokie]

some of the previous posts say that other cars are welcome

The early Q45's tend to suffer from this too. Have you tried cleaning it? Put dielectic grease on the connector?

Checked to see if the connector is on snug?

I cleaned mine with CO CONTACT CLEANER, but any electrical parts cleaner that leaves no residue will do the job just as well. Also, If you use a pod filter, whch requires oiling (K&N), the oil can actually coat the filament in the sensor, and cause it to act like it's dying.

Get a can of electrical parts cleaner from just about any Auto parts store, and clean it!

CHeers for that, really, CO contact cleaner = miracle worker! hosed the crap out of the sensor as it was thickly coated in grease, then hosed the connectors. i did notice that the connector didn't click when i put it back on, so it may be a little loose. all looks good, although i shouldn't speak to soon. took the car for a 20 min drive no issues. see how it goes to work tommorrow. but looks like im back in.
