Do you think I should buy a ether spray? Or just with hairspray (for instance) can check it?

He should spray something flammable over parts of the engine to see if the revs go up. Erm, not petrol but something out of a spray can
Does hairspray burn? I don’t have hair….Do you think I should buy a ether spray? Or just with hairspray (for instance) can check it?
In the can I have a logo with fire, I will try with a lighter firstDoes hairspray burn? I don’t have hair….
If it does, give it a go
MAF temperature shows -40 that means it’s not connected or faulty.Here is the pdf.
Now I have the RP permanently, with the code P0033 and the tipycal with the preassure.
When I started the car I could listen a metalic hit, something like a valve opening or closing.
I do not have the same menus than you but 90% is the same.
I have an special spray cleaner for MAF sensors, I will try tomorrow to clean it, I am not pretty sure this is the problem, could be also the plug.MAF temperature shows -40 that means it’s not connected or faulty.
You could swap them, physically. Unscrew it from the filter box and swap.
In RP, ECU ignores the sensors and work like a budge small engine. For instance the air mass is calculated based on engine rpm at a nominal temperature instead of using maf or air temperature. If the fluctuations go away in RP it is sensor related.
Hi Dirk!Thanks Sergio for the values!
First of all, please do not use hairspray under the bonnet. Will be horrible to be removed. The hint from beevee is good for detecting leaks at intake air hoses. But you should carefully use something like start pilot. But really carefully. It is not very healthy for you engine.
Hamed gave the hint with the MAF. Check again the MAF Bank 1. It's the one at the bottom.
Bank 1 is the cylinder bank RH (means passenger side in your car). Bank 2 is the other cylinder bank LH (means drivers side in your car).
This is the right MAF for the 3.0 DS -> MAF (NGK)
Was your engine warm before you performed this measurement? Some temperature values are very high for a cold engine.
My interpretation of your values:
- Ambient temperature 17°C -> Air charge temperature 27°C => too much. Voltage 2.75V matches the temperature. So it should not be defective. But 27°C is too much. (grey sensor at the manifold intake)
- MAF bank 1 -> wrong new type or defective. Value should by <0.5 g .
- MAF bank 2 -> OK
- calculated load -> OK
- Engine coolant temp 61°C -> real value? The engine was warm.
- MAP value 96 kpa -> OK. Please check this value at 2000 rpm. The value should raise.
- EGR valve position commanded 0% and actual 3.92% -> OK, if the engine was really warm. With a cold engine this should be around 10%.
- Fuel temperature 33°C -> Did the car park in the sun? If not, the value is two times higher than the ambient temperature
My conclusion:
1. MAF bank 2 is wrong or defective. Air charge temperature sensor might be defective. These both sensors really could cause your fluctuation.
2. Battery status is not good. Needs to be charged first (CTEK charger?) Low battery might drop down below 9 V during cranking. That will cause other curious electronic problems.
3. Smoke under the bonnet is the third issue with a third root cause. To be fixed after 1 + 2.
Did a garage buy and assemble the MAF 2? If yes, they should do it again on warranty.
Cheers

I have tried to do three test with my three MAFs. All are the same:Hi Sergio,
just checked this MAF temperature issue with engine off. MAF 1+2 are the same type but the connectors are different. So only MAF 1 (at the bottom) will send a temperature value.

I disonnected both MAF -> Result: RP + Intake Air temperature -40°C (!!same value as yours)
View attachment 197113 View attachment 197114
Connected MAF 2 (top) -> Nothing changed
Connected MAF 1 (bottom) -> tataaa... RP is gone. Temperature back again. Without reset. Just ignition off and on.
View attachment 197115
Disconnect Air Charge temperature sensor -> Value is 30°C (!) . No RP. But my engine is off. Maybe it will result in RP while driving.

I would recommend to check your MAF 1 and/or wiring. You don't get valid temperature data from this MAF.
This is the first thing to fix.
The other issue will follow afterwards
Dirk
Ok, one step more, bypass valve fixed, connector was a little bit free.Temperature fixed, means that you assembled the good MAF as MAF1 at the bottom and you did start the engine?
And then you got the RP + fault codes?
Dirk
I am not with the car just now, but it was same values as yesterday. Around 10 MAF1 and around 10-20 MAF2.Good !!
Can identify if MAF A is really MAF 1 (bottom)?
Can you send a picture of the both MAF values?
Dirk
