How's your D3 post MAP sensor cleanup?
OK, time to see how the cleaning of a gunky MAP sensor has affected things. I know not mega scientific but just for a bit of a gut feeling pole. I'd also suggest post cleaning give it a while before responding (few weeks or couple of thou mles) to get a decent comparison.
EDIT DG, I've made a pigs ear & submitted too early. Can you add "No change to either" and "Had to change MAP sensor coz it didn't like being cleaned"??

This is all very well and good del ...but we need a poll for whether or not the gunk had blocked the hole ......and then we need polls to say if I had a hole whether or not it improved the performance ...then another poll for if the hole was blocked whether or not it improved the performance
