oh, FYI for anyone curious, a new one costs just below 200 bucks.

Btw, when that one broke, you can still bide time by sealing the cracks/holes. I used a combination of silicon sealant/epoxy and wrapped with duct tape after. Worked perfectly fine till I got the replacement. That's just temporary though of course lol.
#5: Re: m20b25 intake elbow Author: boonaroo, Posted: Tue Apr 28, 2009 2:14 pm ---- to give some background of this request. I've been experiencing some unpleasant jerking from the intake, and after noticing cracks, I suspected it could be it. so it turns out that my mech (both of them) ascertained that its a busted AFM after a series of tests(the elbow tested ok, just outer cracks) and attempted remedies. which really is not the greatest as its not a cheap part.

If it's the electronics, then tough luck.
