This part cross-references Bosch 0280217810 and Standard Ignition MAS0161 for the same application.

Common Issues This Part Can Address

• Rough idle caused by inaccurate airflow readings
• Hesitation during acceleration from incorrect air metering
• Check engine light related to mass air flow sensor faults
• Poor fuel control from degraded sensor output
• Driveability problems tied to contaminated or failing MAF sensing

Installation Notes and Quality

Verify the sensor module with housing configuration and match the vehicle application before installation. Inspect the intake tract, air filter condition, and electrical connector for contamination or damage before fitting the new unit. MG0197 is manufactured to meet or exceed OE specifications and is tested under thermal shock, vibration, and OBD verification conditions.

NTK is the only OE supplier with a full line of technical sensors in the aftermarket, and this experience supports consistent application coverage for Mercedes-Benz service work. Part number MG0197 should be confirmed against the vehicle’s original sensor configuration before replacement.
