sharris Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 Hi guys (and girls) My mechanic told me yesterday that the MAF sensor and the Knock Sensor for my Legacy RSK (twin turbo) are faulty (I've been getting intermittant CELs and the car started to stall this weekend). Problem is that the local dealership where I am never brought the twin-turbo models, only single turbo Forresters and the newer 2005 Legacy 2L single-turbo. Can anyone tell me if these two sensors I require are interchangeable with the single-turbo models, or any other useful info (e.g. by-pass tips etc.) THANKS!

The only tidbit I have for you, is that, at one time, some of the MAFs had a replaceable sensor - saved buying an entire MAF unit. maybe jamie at www.subarugenuineparts.com could advise you.

Legacy777 Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 What year legacy do you have? I would assume that the MAF sensors would be similar/same between the same range of model year cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a year 2000 B4 RSK. Any idea if the STi or other MAF or Knock Sensors would work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legacy777 Posted August 12, 2005 Share Posted August 12, 2005 I really can't say for sure whether they will work. There's probably a good likelihood that they'll work. If you have access to the sti stuff, compare the two side by side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
