£62.80 for a MAF from Dealers... is this right

[fahafiz]

ive ordered a MAF sensor from dealers.... he said its an original unit for £62.80, non-exchange and its bosch too... is this right?

 

[Empi5]

Sounds cheap enough, i understood that they were about £80 with your old maf as part exchange.

 

[DPJ]

£62.80 plus VAT plus surcharge until your old one is returned...............

 

[fahafiz]

DPJ he said its 62.80 including VAT and they dont want a exchange too

 

[probee]

thats a bugger Dave. you could have had 8 trophies on your side

 

[RobM]

If that's from a dealer, brand new and no exchange that's a seriously good price!

I stopped buying MAFs from the dealer because they were poorly packaged and looked after compared to the well (Bosch) packaged ECP items.

 

[fahafiz]

RobM i was actually shocked at the price... i gave him the VIN and he gave me a price.. cheaper than Euro Parts and dont need to exchange...i can clean my old one and keep it as a spare...

 

[fahafiz]

DPJ and the rest of Seat'lings.... £62.86 for a BOSCH MAF sensor with hosing and brand new non-exchange.... what a good price.... with guarantee too

 

[RobM]

Do you have a part number and the name of the Seat dealer to hand? I'm thinking that if I ever need a new MAF (again...) I'll phone the local dealer, quote those details and if they are more expensive I'll want to know why

 

[fahafiz]

yeh... 038906461c air flow meter.... jct600 01274400600.... apparantly he matched maf number to my vin.... gonna put it on tonight... is it a hard job?

I'd like better proof it's not re-manufactured, please.

All MAFs apart from the chinese copies have been remanufactures for a couple of years. I can't see brand new being cheaper than remanufactured.

 

[fahafiz]

i aint complaining... i can take 5 megapixel pics and scan receipt.... it looks so new u can eat off it

 

[DPJ]

i.... it looks so new u can eat off it

So do the remanufactures.

 

[fahafiz]

ah... he said they dont do exchanges anymore... and that this was brand new theyve stoped doing refurbs.... he give them a call.... see what they say... i may have misunderstood

 

[Molehill_Mike]

We paid £65 for a new BOSCH one a few weeks ago, no trade or anything

 

[fahafiz]

im not alone then Mike.... i just hope that it was my MAF thats faulty... if it aint then i'll be selling the new MAF lol any offers?

 

[Molehill_Mike]

Doh! Should of asked a member who is close to you and swapped them over to see !

Mike

 

[fahafiz]

true... i'll sel it on ere if its not my MAF... if not i'll keep it for when it does mess up...

 

[dan__smith]

I didn't realise that they were that expensive
