Default Manifold pressure issue:

16621 - Manifold Pressure / Boost Sensor (G31): Signal too Low
P0237 - 35-00 - -


Is the code I am recieving.

With the key in position 2, car off, I can clear the code and it will pop up again in a second.

What are my options here?

MAP sensor? It's under the battery (on a 225).

Default These shots should help you locate it...

MAP pipe is bottom right of this screen

I think the MAP sensor is visible here (bottom right):

Default I have access to it. I don't have a battery there, its in the trunk. I cannot get one of the screws.

out, the one further into the engine bay seems to be stuck.

As well as, when i get it out what should i do with it? clean it? buy a new one?

Default Since you now have the room, you should fab up a new pipe WITHOUT the pancake treatment.

42DraftDesigns sells a MAP sensor mount. Maybe a muffler shop could bend some pipe to match OEM pancake pipe and weld on the mount. I would think that a round cross section pipe would flow air much better than the squished stock one.<ul><li><a href="http://www.42draftdesigns.com/18tmapsensors.htm">MAP sensor mount</a></li></ul>

Default Don't know. Dealer would be a quick choice, but worldimpex, 1stvwparts, etc. will likely be

cheaper. I don't have a part number either.

Default Happy Thanksgiving all. Just back from a spin with top down. Found this on World Impex:

I am not 100% certain this is the part, but it looks like a manifold air pressure (MAP) sensor to me......<ul><li><a href="http://www.worldimpex.com/item_detail.html?sku=176667">MAP sensor?</a></li></ul>

Default Thanks, I'm going to take the pipe off today and check for cracks/leaks & the sensor...

I wonder if there is anyway to fix it. I don't need my car for the next few days since I can't go anywhere. I have a minior heart condition that has to be taken care of early next week.

If I cannot fix the sensor in anyway or the connections arent messed up on the harness, I'm going to order a new one and the 42DD sensor holder. Has anyone fabbed their own pipe up before?
