most of the time when a map senor code is thrown its in the wiring and not the sensor. we have seen this alot in honda's. We check the code then replace the sensor same thing happens then we bust out the mm and the manny. and trace it to the problem source

3 things possible though: hose leak, wiring, or map sensor itself.
