MAF Filter replacement

[Alfieboy]

Just followed the very excellent DIY guide on how to replace the MAF. If you follow the tutorial:

It mentions a suck jet pump connection, which is not present on earlier cars. My question is this a DIY for air filters on all recent 911s (996 & 997)? As I own a 2003 C4 Cab and I have no such connection. As I am a late 996 model, I wondered if this is something I might have overlooked (but can't see how, I don't have suck jet pump connector like that which is shown in the diagram).

Thanks in advance!

I think you are talking about the tube/hose that is only present on Tiptronic cars.

Yes, and that answers my question - I have manual transmission. Thank you!

One correction worth noting to your post. The MAF is the Mass Air Flow Sensor located on the inlet tube of the air box, not the master air filter you stated. A ton of info here on this site to help you better understand your vehicle and provide a better systems level knowledge of its operation and maintenance requirements.

Thanks, I also meant Mass - not sure why I wrote Master.Too many acronyms, not enough brain power.
