MAS sensor interchangeability?

[frank4]

I am pretty sure that I have MAS sensor problem on my 1996, (W202), C230 elegance. Like all of us I hate the robbers at the dealerships and cannot bring myself to part with 200 - 400 pounds. I think that I need part no. 940948. However I have found new sensors on ebay, (unfortunately no pics), most are for diesels and are part no 940048 and another is for petrol models 940148. Even if I have to swap the sensor out into my origonal sensor body does any one know if either if the two parts above are interchangeable? Many thanks.

Update. I've just removed the body, (it is a 940948), and removed the sensor from the body. The numbers in the sensor are 00C 202 001 and 669 022 A and 818 and PBT - GF30

Best regards

Thanks that was it, and I bought it!!

I also saw sensors only for 35.00 but were not from the exactly the same model. However I'm sure that all the different mercedes part number are needed for the different bodies and there will only be a one or two sensors that they use in all the different bodies. However I didn't want to risk it

Thanks again
Frank.
