Default MAF Problems

2000 Disco2.

I replaced the MAF with a new one a few months back (Bosch OEM) and it has already gone out again. My filter is clean and all seals around box are tight. Only used compressed air to clean.

Got the same codes from the OBD2... p0171,p0174, and p0112.

What else could be messing up my MAF. (no K&N)

Thanks,
Jeff

How do you know that you got the proper MAF? Scan the car and post the codes up.

MAF (Bosch) is from the dealership. Codes are in the original post.

112, intake air temp. circuit low. I go by the dealer and show him your codes, you have a 1 year warranty and it should be covered as a failed MAF.

138K on the clock, new NGK Iridiums last month, 8mm magnacores, as far as the sea foam, I use it regularly in the gas but have not done the intake procedure yet.

I agree also but what I'm trying to get at is what is frying the MAF's every time I put a new one in.

This is the 3rd time.
