Detailed Product Description

The Facet 10.3164 Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor is engineered to provide precise pressure data from the intake manifold to the engine control unit (ECU) in Mini Cooper vehicles. By measuring the absolute pressure inside the intake manifold, this sensor helps the ECU calculate air density and adjust fuel injection accordingly. This ensures efficient combustion, reduced emissions, and consistent engine performance. The sensor is designed to meet OEM specifications, making it a suitable replacement for worn or faulty sensors in the emission control system.

Common Applications and Issues Addressed

• Helps resolve rough idling and engine stalling
• Improves fuel economy by optimizing air-fuel mixture
• Reduces engine hesitation and poor acceleration
• Assists in maintaining proper emission levels
• Prevents check engine light triggers related to manifold pressure

Installation Notes and Tips

Installation of the Facet 10.3164 sensor requires basic mechanical skills and proper tools. Ensure the engine is cool before beginning installation. Disconnect the battery to avoid electrical shorts. Remove the old sensor carefully to avoid damage to the intake manifold or wiring harness. Install the new sensor securely and reconnect all electrical connections. After installation, it is recommended to clear any diagnostic trouble codes and perform a test drive to verify proper sensor operation.
