MAP/MAF - throttle position correlation

What it means

The air flow the ECU expects from the throttle position does not match what the MAF or MAP sensor measures.

Symptoms

  • reduced power or limp mode
  • rough idle or stalling
  • engine warning light

Likely causes, most likely first

Likely causes, most likely first
No.Cause
01air leak between the throttle body and the engine
02dirty or carboned throttle body
03faulty MAF or MAP sensor
04throttle position sensor fault
05intake leak between the MAF and the throttle body

What to check, step by step

  1. 01Check for other MAF, MAP or throttle codes and diagnose those first
  2. 02Smoke-test the intake for leaks before and after the throttle body
  3. 03Inspect and clean the throttle body, then run the throttle adaptation
  4. 04Compare MAF/MAP readings with throttle angle in live data
