Hard to understand the post. But does the car overheat? Is it hard to start? Does it have idle surge?

Usually a bad MAS won't cause any type of temperature issue. Usually it will affect the idle.

Your engine fan is supposed to turn on at idle to help move air through the radiator while the car isn't in motion.

You could try to adjust your BISS. It's the little screw on the throttle body sometimes under a rubber cap. What's the idle at usually when the fan isn't on? 500rpm isn't super low but you usually want to try and get about 700-800rpm.

Try a new thermostat and a new radiator cap, Check your coolant levels and if that doesn't help replace the water pump and flush your system out and put new coolant

had the same problem.. You need to block the air flow from the radiator hitting your maf... either get a custom intake or block the air with some sheet metal... Maf is reading air temperatures of probably 200 degrees ( 200 is normal operating temp and your radiator is usally in that range)

ok . so today i was Return the orginal filter with the orginal sheet .
and i test the engine put it work like 10 min with fan work and without .. and i didnt see low idle speed .
and i take the car drive to highway ..and stop somwhere .. and hes didnt do some wierd problem .
but the temp still middle on the icon of the temp .
and the speed idle didnt low .. its 800RPM or 1K RPM .

So the next level i need to change the water and the radiator cap ..

but what do u say about this today guys

So what exactly is your problem than? If your temp gauge shows that the needle is in the middle that you should be good. That is what you want it to be at. I guess I misunderstood your problem
