Sorry, my last post was incorrect... yes it has a pcv valve but in my engine it is under the injectors (not reachable without a lot of work)Quick question chaps - is there a "PCV" on the S Type?
What's the part name?
.
looks like the S type from M45255 have a different arrangement. The PCV is integrated into the Right bank breather on the valve cover.Sorry, my last post was incorrect... yes it has a pcv valve but in my engine it is under the injectors (not reachable without a lot of work)
If you only.have 11.8 volts after the surface charge has gone then the battery is technically dead. You must have +12.4 volts for these cars or it will not function correctly and you will get false codes.if you are on about battery voltage it makes no difference if it is 13.6 still with surface voltage or if it has died a bit to 11.8 the resistance still rises

Dave, this is a dumb question, but have you cleared the codes after installing the new MAF. The code won't disappear by it self unless you drive the car for the required drive cycles. I am still not convinced that your issue has anything to do with the MAF and think you should go back and carefully check Trims under various conditions after allowing the car to properly relearn and stablise trims (Unless of course the car is not drivable)
As far as the ground is concerned, I would be a little careful in interpreting the ground information you are getting because I think your car has the sensor grounded via the ECU (so your car might be using a floating ground).
Yes... Much safer to use the MAF sensor cleaner as depending on the type of sensor, carb cleaners can damage the outer coating of some sensors

This has already been explained to you!
I agree with freebird, I think it's best to use and let the car stabilise for a couple of hundred miles now if it runs then check fuel trims again.
Back on post #43 I said the above. Your car is now telling you that the new MAF is faulty; as a tech, have you ever encountered a bad electronic component right out of the box?I am curious as to how the Chinese component will perform in the car; inexpensive engine management parts from China do not enjoy a sterling reputation for performance and reliability when installed in the Denso manufactured systems installed on our Jaguars...
