Air Flow Sensor - Additional Information

Vehicle Type:

Boxster 2.7 / Boxster S

Model Year:

MY 2000 (Y)

Concern:

New airflow sensor ( HMF ) that is less sensitive to dirt particles.

Information:

A new HMF is being introduced as of January 31, 2000. The new HMF, which is less sensitive to dirt particles, is being installed in production

starting with the VIN's shown.

A barcode sticker will be attached to the air cleaner housing to make it easier to distinguish whether a new or an old HFM is installed in the engine.

When replacing an old sensor, the DME will have to be reprogrammed. This is accomplished by using the PST2 with version 9.0 installed. Version

9.0 has a tentative release date of May 1, 2000. Please note that until software version 9.0 is released, continue to use the old style HMF sensor for

repairs.

The barcode sticker reads as shown.

Note:

The numbers printed on the bar sticker are not the actual part numbers of the sensors.
