P0101 MAF range performance
Hi everyone.
I have an Audi A1 sport 2012 1.6tdi. 103k
Great car bought from new, recently serviced by Audi specialists.
Noticed the next day that the coil lamp started flashing and eventually the engine light came on.
No noticeable difference in performance, other than Stop Start doesn't work in this condition.
I attached my VAG II and got the following codes.
P0101 Mass or Volume Airflow A circuit range performance
P0111 Intake Air Temperature Sensor 1 circuit range/performance.
I removed the MAF sensor and cleaned it using MAF cleaner, thinking that maybe the change of air filter at the service may have dirtied it.
Seemed ok for 60 miles then came on again, same codes. I decided to change the MAF for new as I have 100K+.Seemed ok again for 60 miles and it came on again.
Now I have checked the connections, wiring as best I can, connector and terminals are locked and clean, can't see or hear any air leaks in the air intake so I'm puzzled.
Being a cynic I wondered if the garage that serviced it, did something to get more work, or maybe the fluffy looking air filter is causing a problem.
One thing I did wonder having read somewhere, the Brake switch is somehow connected to the MAF electrically? today it was ok for 32 miles on my motorway drive as soon as I needed to hit the brakes at speed to slow down the light came on. Now this may be coincidence, but I am wondering if there's something in it. Or could it be the sudden reduction in airflow causing that?
Anyone else found these codes and resolved them?

You need to scan it using VCDS to get a accurate fault code read out most likely it a sensor to with the exhaust or DPF

Hi Thanks for the reply, my VAG ii doesn't give enough information, I know someone with VCDS, will take a look.
The light was off this morning , I needed to brake sharply on the motorway after 6 miles and it came on, together with the Engine light.
There's no noticeable effect on the drive.
Re: P0101 MAF range performance
In addition, I just put the VAG ii on and the air inlet temperature seems fixed on 130°C, even when the engine is cold.
Didn't notice that previously as the engine was warm after a run.
It was 130°C then too.
I'll check it tomorrow with VCDS and see what it reads. But any thoughts on that ?

Re: P0101 MAF range performance
Digging a bit more,
3 Wires are on the sensor socket.
Right pin (not numbered) 5V supply to the Sensor is fine.
Left pin is ground
centre pin has very low resistance (to ground), I don't know what it should be but I suspect this is the reason the temp sensor is reading 130C.
I'm guessing this goes into the control unit.
So unless there's something in the cables?
I don't have a tracker to chase the short unfortunately.
Looks like one for the garage now.

Re: P0101 MAF range performance
Its fixed.
That was interesting.
Let me know if anyone is interested and Ill post the details
Re: P0101 MAF range performance
Hey muckie, i have exactly the same problem, i have tried smoke testing all the vaccum pipes and checking the MAF sensor but no luck, did you find the fix?
Re: P0101 MAF range performance
Hi Leoncj,
If you look in my VCDS above, you will see the Intake air temperature measures 130 °C.
This is clearly incorrect.
Does yours have the same reading?
