Could a faulty Maf sensor have an effect on my tranny slipping between 2/3. This seems to be happening only when the car is scold and when driven on low revs.The problem is also occurring when driving around corners when the transmission shifts from 2 / 3 rd.
If driven on high revs from the start the shifting is normal. The problems seem to have started after I've blocked of the egr unit by using an alumunium plate. I forgot to reconnect the pipe running from the maf sensor to the intake manifold and only realised my mistake after the car was misfiring and smoking at ± 90 km/ hour. I replaced the pipe and the car was fine. The performance of the car was however not what it used to be and the slipping of the 2/3 shifting was worse.
I'm new to this forum and help would be appreciated. I'm not a diy specialist but am enjoying the technical side of these great diesels.
