Deeron Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 My local junkyard doesn't have any compatible MAF sensors for my 1999 legacy, so I was thinking about just ordering an aftermarket sensor. There is a huge range in prices in these parts. Does anyone recommend a particular brand as a good value? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carfreak85 Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 (edited) Have you tried cleaning the MAF? I would only buy an OEM MAF sensor, the aftermarket ones just aren't worth the savings, but then again, I pretty much only have turbo'd Subarus.

idosubaru Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 i certainly wouldn't pay much for an aftermarket one if you end up going that route. make sure it's the right one - it's easy to screw up part compatability/interchangeability on a 1999 Subaru. OEM fail so rarely that a used one for a few bucks isn't a bad idea. that's what I'd do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtdash Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 (edited) And '99 Legacy could have two kinds...2.2 or 2.5? 2.5 is the same Green Label JECs/AUTECS MAF used on Subarus from '92-'98/'99. But yeah, the '99 2.2 was a unique year....did you look @ Foresters (2.5 but phase 2 electronics) and Imprezas?
