Default What do I look for when I get fault 16487 - MAF Sig too high ?
Soon as I put Abt chip in 4 days ago I would get this under mid to WOT. Replaced TBB and BOV's, installed K&N, couple TBA's. Still getting it. I logged a couple passes w/VAG (groups 003,115 & 120), but ned advice on what to look for that would trigger a Dtc 16487. Thanks for any feedback.

I would first sugjest going back to stock till you find the issue. Maybe try a pressure test.

Does your ABS - EPC light come on too?

Sometimes, but the MAF code and this eve a 17963 code worry me more. Is ABS/EPC common?

Well, apparently it's an ABT/AMS chip "thing", they have a software revision to fix it.
