There is a lot of confusion about the airflow meter with the label >פּבט-גפ30<and the reason why you are reading this article is probably because this is exactly what it says on your air mass meter…
The reason you haven’t found a dealer where you can buy this part is that PBT GF 30 is not a model or part number but the abbreviation for Polybutyleneterephthalate און 30% glassfiber, the plastic used in all air mass meter housings – regardless of whether it’s Bosch, VDO or Pierburg.
So, how can you find the correct part number of you air mass meter?
Often the actual part number is on the other side of the housing. Sometimes this is exactly the side you can’t see when the unit is still installed, אַזוי איר וועט האָבן צו דיסמאָונט עס פון דער לופט רער וואָס נעמט אַפּפּראָקס. 5 מינוט (check theair flow meter installation videoto see how it’s done).
I receive almost every day emails from Chinese merchants who want to offer their car parts, especially airflow meters. Though they have no problem to use Bosch numbers as if they were in a cooperation with Bosch and some manufacturers like RIYI, use packaging designs that are astonishingly similar to the original Bosch one, I haven’t actually seen any Bosch air mass meter fakes.
The Pierburg air mass meter7.22684.08.0has been quite a popular replacement of the Bosch air mass meter used in many of Volkswagen’s TDI engines, which is known to be susceptible to faults. Except for a few exceptions the 7.22684.08.0 mainly fit for the 1.9 TDI used by Audi, Seat, Skoda and VW. However, there was no airmass meter replacement equivalent to Bosch’s quality for the 2.5 TDI, FSI and 1.8 T(exact vehicle list).
Finally Pierburg offers now also an air mass sensor for those models, called7.22684.10.0. Same as the 7.22684.08.0 די 7.22684.10.0 uses a very precise hot-film sensor which is quite more accurate and durable than the cheap Asian replicas and much cheaper than the Bosch airmassmeter, which costs >200€.
The MAF-Shop offers the Pierburg 7.22684.10.0 airflow meter for €99.90 incl. taxes (+shipping):
The MAF-Shop offers now an OEM airmass meter by Pierburg (7.22184.50.0)which fits the 2.5 l turbo diesel (td) and intercooled turbodiesel (tds) engines, that were used in the BMW (M51D25) E36, E34, E39 and the E38, as well as in the Vauxhall (also known as Opel) Omega B (25DT).
Especially the 5-series E39 525tds, 525td and the 3-series E36 with the 325td version, were some of the most popular BMW diesel models, so I’m sure a lot of the turbodiesel-enthusiasts will be happy about this cheap offer: The PIERBURG MAF7.22184.50.0 costs €179.90 (+shipping cost) and can be ordered through this link:
The MAF Service GmbH – the company behind theMAF-Shop – is situated inBerlin, the capital of Germany, but distributes their air mass meters worldwide. Their website and customer service is available in German, English, Spanish and French.
But how does it work when you order an airmass meter from somewhere else in the world?
The payment process via credit card or PayPal is pretty much possible from anywhere, bank transfers are also available – in the EU they’re even for free.
Also, if you have the air mass meter shipped to somewhere outside the EU, like the United States, Canada,… the German VAT is automatically deducted. That’s19%!
For example, the Bosch air mass meter0280 217 114 which fits a lot of Mercedes models, costs instead of 199.90€ only 168€ (you divide the amount including VAT by 1.19 to deduct the German VAT, don’t worry though, the online shop does it automatically for you).
If you want your air mass meter to be delivered within the EU and you have aVAT ID, like most business in the European Union do, you can also deduct the 19%.
The main shipping courier that is used, isDHLwhich delivers almost to anywhere in the world and is pretty cheap. Here are the details, but let’s have a quick overview:
Shipping within the EU (UK, Netherlands,..) costs 8.90€ and take 2-3 business days.
Shipping within Europe costs 12.90€ and take 2-4 business days.
Shipping to the rest of the world costs upto 32€. Inquire for more details. Especially to the USA cheap and quick shipping via FedEx is available.
Don’t forget that you might have to pay customs if you have the air mass meter shipped somewhere outside the EU.
