Sorry I left the recall paper at work. I'll upload a copy.

I'll report back here tomorrow also.

Just had the recall done for both the NOX/PCM and the rear door latch issue. The NOX/PCM software update has seemed to fix the clunk in the differential/transfer case that many have spoken about here. We don't have any emissions testing in Kentucky so it wasn't a crucial thing to have done, just wanted to latest software. Both recalls took about an hour total at the dealer. The rear door latch they just check for water ingress, if the vehicle shows signs then they replace whatever parts needed, thankfully mine did not have it.

Could you post a photo showing where the gunked up MAP is. Did you clean it or replace it?

I'm also curious to know if this is something Td6 owners should be replacing or cleaning every so often.

Is it just a matter of spraying the MAP with some brake cleaner, or something more involved?

Your welcome.

I prefer not to use the MAF cleaner.

I just wipe the outside. Then carefully loosen soot with a pick, Don't go to deep, then use a Qtip/cotton swab circles not in and out.

No compressed air! ($85 dollar mistake) https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo...=11207&jsn=395

you can gentle tap it to get final soot out.

Good luck!

Thanks to @gmfain for sharing his knowledge with us. I was able to clean the DEF injector & MAP sensor. Both turned out to be super easy maintenance items



T25 Torx to remove the bolt

Minor build-up at 39K; it all fell out with a touch of hand

few finger taps is all it took to drop all the build-up on the ground



Initially had a challenge to remove the sensor

Then realized there is a tab to push in; voila!
