Does The Volant Intake Use The Stock MAF?

Probably a nOOb question, but the Volant was on the car when I purchased it, so I don't know for sure.


Been getting Lean Codes for Banks 1 & 2 this week, and today I also got a MAF Low-Voltage Code.


If Yes, anybody got a good one for sale?

Is the volant intake a wet filter? Pretty common for people to oil the **** out of them and the oil gets on the MAF causing DTCS. Grab a can of eletrical cleaner from an autoparts store and clean it.

I have a K and N but I dont see any reason a volant would use a aftermarket maf

Yeah it's got a K&N Type filter on it which I cleaned and re-oiled back before Labor Day. I used the oil very sparingly(Because of the info I had read here) and it was fine up until this week.

Get MAF cleaner and hit it hard

Both banks lean and low maf code, Id be doing alot more before I toss a maf on it. Intake leaks cracked pcv lines etc. Spray around the intake with some intake cleaner to see if your idle raises

Would a dirty MAF cause the Low-Voltage Code?

I'll give it a try. Sounds like a possible chaep fix.

Problem Solved.

First let me say 'Thanks' for the suggestions. Always nice to have some help from those with some experience with these cars. Though, today all I needed to do was take a close look to find my problem.

This is my DD and I have no desire to mod it, therefore I never really lift the hood other than to check fluids/belts/clean stuff, and change the oil. If it runs and sounds normal - I'm happy.

With that said, I lifted the hood and found that my Intake Tube had seperated from the hose on the TB side, so I grabbed a screwdriver and put it back together. Cleared the codes, took it for a ride, no CEL's.

All is good - Thanks Again.
