subaru wrx

[W10WRX]

Hi I'm new too this and have just bought my first  subaru.. The car was fine when I bought it.

All of a sudden  while driving  getting to 2500 k too 3000 k revs the car shudders  and won't go over 3000 k revs strange thing was this happened on the Saturday  so I parked it up.

On the Sunday I drove about 60 miles driving fine boosting in all gears sounding  great parked it up after use next day it was back to playing up not going over 3k  revs some say it's the MAF SENSOR  I'm just looking too see if anyone else has experienced  this and could point me in the right direction  sorry for lack of information  I'm just new too this site HELP

It's a 2000  model  mate classic

More than likely maf ! Running a cone filter ?

[W10WRX]

There is a  filter on it don't know what  kind previous  owner  fitted it

If it's a cone ( not airbox ) then it moves around and breaks 

 

my old wagon did this

Removed maf cleaned it just about to  refit  it here's hoping
