Hi, Well I should start of by saying I'm mark. But you can probably see that! And then I should say I've had my titanium mps 6 for a little over a week now. I think that's how its done! I've always had a Mazda of some sort. But this one has really put me in a happy place. Well except for the maf sensor causing a little poor acceleration. but apart from that I think I've found a peach. So here I am. I've had a bit of a look round. And I'm really impressed with how everyone has the crack with each other. And you all seem to know how to fix any issues someone has or they know someone who can. I'm looking forward to a bit of light reading. But anyway! I can't do this all day. I've got a new car to drive. Peace

Hello and  There is sprays for electrical components(ie Maplins etc) that you can use on the MAF to clean it, that evaporate so you do not have to touch it,as it is very very fragile

Welcome. You are so right about the crack on here. Take it for granted after a while until you visit other forums and read the pages of doom and gloom about their cars. Sure, the MPS has its issues but most are now well known and there is someone with an answer. It is so easy to forget what owners of other cars have to put up with, even prestige marques.
