Has the sensor actually been diagnosed as faulty or is your car just mis-behaving?
If it hasnt been diagnosed as broken then I would recommend you grab a can of MAF Cleaner and give it a good spray...
Both my golf and friends Polo TDI gave MAF issues and R3000 quotes to replace... Quick spray and they were fixed.

According to the BMW guys the sensor is gone. They didn't actually give me a print out of the test which they did for me to actually check that the sensor is broken. I will give the MAF cleaner a try though and see if that works.
Can you perharps tell me where I might be able to find this MAF cleaner, because I've been looking around over the weekend and I've had no luck finding the stuff.

Diesel Electric. R1425 delivered to your door. It is the same Bosch part that the dealer sells, just rebadged.
Well that was last year when I bought one.
Any exhaust shop can fit it easily.
Thanks for the reply. I thought that I would have to take it to a bmw specialist to get the part installed. Didn't know that it could be done at an exhaust shop.
I'll be sure to look up these diesel electric guys and find out how much they charge for one of the sensors. If what you say is true then I'm sure the exhaust guys won't kill me with a hectic price just to install the part.
