Cleaning the MAF sensor of the Citroen C5 X7.

Model: Citroen C5 MK 2, RD, X7 - Years 2008-2017
Part: Checks and maintenance

If the Citroen C5 shows a non-progressive power delivery, especially at low revs, and at the same time the engine malfunction light comes on, we can solve these problems by cleaning the MAF sensor located near the air filter. Open the engine hood, locate the filter in the center of the engine, disconnect the electrical connector from the sensor body, loosen the clamp of the outlet pipe, use a small wrench to unscrew the two screws that secure the mounting flange and remove the sensor. Spray the entire sensor with a cleaning spray, wait for it to dry completely, and then reassemble it.
