Ok I am on my 3rd afm in 6 months..

New one arrived in post today plug it in and it idles for a bit then stalls. Give it gas it cuts out.

I tried putting the 2 blown ones in and the car goes into limp with them in.

I doubt this part could of died with 0 run time.

I'm in ramsgate sydney, does anyone have an m35 I can bring this new afm too, so that I can test to see if the part is or isn't faulty?

Tried the fault code thing I can't get it to work. Or my cel is blown.

Did you do the ECU reset between trying the AFMs?

I can read your codes / erase them. I can also Log the AFM volts to see if it spikes or does anything abnormal. Only one other car I have seen did this, and it has been running fine for a while now using one AFM after going through 3 or 4 in quick time.

Simple things to check would be the connection, and a visual inspection of the wiring loom, and ECU plug. Make sure your AFM is sealed neat on the back of the airbox, and the filter is placed in so crap isn't getting by it.

I'l try it in mine.....Alex is 1 minute from my house too so you could kill 2 birds with one stone.

Will have to be quick though because both of us are off to PI next wednesday for a week!

    • Finally got shipping number for the intake and throttle body, shipped by UPS, so "should" be in my hands sometime next week, fingers fracking crossed
    • I'm so far behind in the jobs I have to do at both work and home (including car) that I have become immortal. There's simply no way that I can die now.
    • Each to their own I guess  Me, I put just as much time into cleaning inside of the cars as I do on the outside As for getting wet, it is really no different than steam cleaning the carpets at home, apart from the cars carpet dries alot faster than the house, again, I only do it in the hotter months and leave the car opened up for a few hours As I only do it yearly, it is just before I do the diff and gearbox service, so I clean the carpets, then it's up on stands, wheels off, service, clean the undercarriage,  grease the bushings and do a nut and bolt check on everything  Disclaimer: I typically had all the time in the world to kill when I was working 🤣, so spending a full day or 2 cleaning, serving and "looking at stuff" was,  easily achievable, and a fun mental therapy day As for time to kill, I retired last Wednesday, so apart from my physical training, my days are filled with lots of random jobs around the house and garden...."Idle hands are the Devils something something" I am also buying a new house sooner rather than later, I'm actually looking at a potential property tomorrow, I'm looking forward to getting a car hoist as I'm starting to get to old to crawl around under a car, I can only imagine all the undercarriage cleaning and looking at stuff when that gets set up
    • Yeah, I'm not interested in wetting the carpets, and I don't care about brown dirt/dust that lives deep in the pile or underneath. It's not like I crawl around on them in my birthday suit or eat dropped food off them (because there is never any open food in my car). The seats are alcantara (cheap Chinese imitation alcantara, to be sure!) with barely 1" of foam pad behind the surface. That's not getting wet either. Any car that I would be happy to get the interior wet, I would not care to put the effort into.
    • We have one that holds 2.8L of water. On floor carpet that hasn't been touched in 2 or 3 years, will take a minimum of 2 fills of the tank to do a bedroom, and that's going AROUND the bed.   In the cruiser, I used an ENTIRE 2.8L tank, just on the front passenger footwell. But it had some fungus growing, and had been full of mud from being used as a 4WD for many years. I can do that floor again, and it will still pull mud out. However, the water now only looks dirty, not pitch black and leaving full sludge in the bottom of the tank it sucks back into. Oh, and, this is about a $1500 unit.
