I think that is my least favorite part of working on a 10+ year old BMW, the heat-cycled plastic. It's like my car has age-induced osteoporosis.

I seem to have some more missing plastic in my MAF too. Didn't really think too much until I started looking at MAF pictures online. I don't seem to have the plastic guard with the BMW logo. I'm not sure what happened there or recall if I saw it there before. Uhhh....
This guy on youtube also had his go missing.

The BMW logo isn't present on aftermarket units. Plus, the car in the video is a MY 2000 pre-facelift car, so it's a different MAF than what we have on our 330's.I seem to have some more missing plastic in my MAF too.

It's not the car you drive, it's how you drive it.

Are you talking about this part?
It seems to be pictured on all the MAFs, though there's a real possibility that's not a bmw symbol.

No, I thought you were referring to the top flat part where the connector goes in. My bad.

any old car will be the same way, it has nothing to do with BMW...
you get used to handling those bits with extra finesse.

My 22 year old miata has far less broken plastic and rubber bits than my zhp. And 40,000 more miles.any old car will be the same way, it has nothing to do with BMW...
