Maf sensor plug problem

[Audiman99]

Hey, just got back from Audi and bought a new reconditioned MAF as I thought mine was faulty, cost about 65 quid and I have 3 weeks to drop my old one back to them, not too bad I guess!

Anyway went to fit it and all was fine except when i went to plug it back on, I noticed that one of the pin slots looked like it has snapped off on the plug, I counted 5 pins on the MAF and there are only 4 slots left on the sensor I have taken some pics to show you what I mean. Just wondering if it has broken off, and how much a new sensor would be?

Thanks guys

id be down to a breakers cutting the loom off another VAG car, and soldering it onto your car, then fitting

You can buy those plug ends from audi quite cheaply too, but breakers yard stuff will fit neatly on your pocket ;-)

is that possble? cos theres a audi/vw breakers near me but i dont fancy soldering the connection sounds like a bit of a bodge job to me

Just noticed that my engine management light is on, i guess the connection is proper broke then. Can i just pull it as hard as i can how is it attached to the car?

Breakers here i come.....
