My impreza p1 has had a few running issues over the last 2 weeks and i have posted my problems on here but nothing has been sorted so far..... I was just leaving for work there and my car ran for around 2-300 yards before cutting out , To get it home i had to start the car it will only run for around 2 seconds and then cut out then turn the key and its straight back on again but then dies 2 seconds later again. plugged my cable into the car and the current codes im getting are ---- P0113 INTAKE AIR TEMP SENSOR CIRCUIT MALFUNCTION(HIGH INPUT)***** Not had this code before ****** P0111 INTAKE AIR TEMP SENSOR RANGE/PERFORMANCE PROBLEM & p0336 CRANK SHAFT POSITION SENSOR CIRCUIT RANGE/PERFORMANCE PROBLEM..... What could be making my car die after 2 seconds of running? Thank you for your help

 

Unplugged the MAF sensor and BAMM fired up and ran again, plugged it in stalled after 2 seconds unplugged it and ran fine again, Would the maf sensor failing throw up those intake air sensors? Also can i cause much damage running without the maf for a few days until 1 arrives? Just driving it easy i mean.

 

You need to join the P1woc website they are very helpful on there and will have all the answers for you. A great bunch of lads.

 

I'd be changing the MAF pretty soon, and no, personally I wouldn't drive without one. If it leans out, that could be your engine gone

 

Thanks for the quick replys, I will sign up for that shortly, what do you mean if it leans out it will destroy the engine, when I mean use the car it's for a 20 mile round trip to pick up a sensor... That should be okay right? Thanks

 

If it leans out not enough fuel for the bang which will make it run hot which can cause major problems

 

MAF solution noted above and mine did the same until I fixed the MAF but doesn't the factory immobiliser do the same, let it run for 2 seconds then cut's the engine. If the MAF doesn't cure it which it probably will look at the immobiliser/transponder.

 

wouldnt recommed driving it with out the MAF as its there for a reason!! surely if its a 20mile round trip a friend could take you for the sensor?

 

As above, I'd not do it.......
