got the P305F code in my Chevy Malibu and it’s not fun. started with checking spark plugs they were dirty so i changed 'em and the code cleared for a bit but then it came back so thought about fuel filter next step yep cleared again didnt last long tho. replaced fuel filter too, made things better but still sometimes it acts up. heard about the mass air flow sensor being a pain in the neck, anyone else had issues with that? seems like a never-ending game of whack-a-mole with these fixes. thoughts on what to try next? might be time to take it to a mechanic and see what’s up they might catch something we missed.
I’ve got this P305F code on my '13 Chevy Malibu right here in Ontario. On a whim, I tried replacing the o2 sensor myself—you know, a bit fiddly but not rocket science. Worked like a charm! I’ve also heard that checking for a vacuum leak can fix it, too. It’s worth a shot before coughing up cash for a shop visit. Cheers to DIY fixes!
So I ran into the P305F code on my Chevy Malibu up in Toronto. I had a buddy who was an amateur mechanic and he reckoned it was the oil pressure sensor. Swapped it out, and wouldn’t you know it, all fixed up. It’s the little fixes that save the day, eh? Always good to swap stories with other Chevy drivers.
I’ve got a Chevy Malibu here in Toronto, ran into that annoying P305F code. It drove me bonkers! Turns out the vacuum leak was behind the valve cover—easiest fix ever, just some new gaskets. Wish I’d checked that sooner; rode like a dream after. Y’all know what I’m talking about, right?
In Buffalo, I’ve had the P305F code on my Chevy Malibu. A buddy replaced the PCV filter—boom, fixed! Others swears by cleaning or letting their car breathe after long drives in traffic. Isn’t it wild how simple fixes work wonders? Always check the basics first!
I’ve been dealing with the P305F code on my Chevy Malibu here in Texas. Seems like it’s a common issue up north too. Had to replace the mass airflow sensor last time. The atmo pressure sensor was acting up too, so a quick fix had me swapping that out. Just goes to show, sometimes granny’s old advice to “look under the hood” is spot on when you’re stumped by your car. Hang tight if you’re going through the same thing!
So, I had this P305F code pop up in my '16 Malibu around Philly. First thing I tried was flushing the distributor. That did squat. Then, replaced the o-ring—surprised how something so small could mess things up bad. After that, the DPC was acting finicky. Replaced it, and boom, back to normal. Crazy how these little fixes often hit the spot! Anyone else tried other tricks?
Been driving my Malibu 'round Nashville, and this P305F code hit me like a ton of bricks! Figured it was probably the PCV valve causing the headache. Swapped it out and bam, problem solved. Heard a lot of folks here oil in the crankcase is another troublemaker - gotta change their filters regularly! Total win. Just like Grandma says, a quick fix beats a costly repair shop run!
In Detroit, I almost had a meltdown with my Chevy Malibu when it turned on the dreaded P305F code. Found out the EGR valve was caked with soot. Cleaning it fixed the problem, and even though I have replaced the mass air flow sensor before, that wasn’t the issue this time. Definitely check those first!
In Seattle, I run into the dreaded P305F code on my Malibu all the time. Just last week, it was the cam position sensor. Changed it, and bam, she purrs again. Others in my crew swear it’s fuel pressure or clogged injectors. Either way, it’s a real headache, but fixing it means back on the road.
I’ve got this P305F code on my Chevy Malibu right here in Chicago. It’s the PCV valve gunked up situation, I’ve heard. Common fixes are pretty simple like swapping the valve or vacuum leak fixes. Had it done at a buddy’s garage, also a coupla bucks cheaper. Tunes out that rattling sound, man. It’s a no-brainer fix, and keeps the Malibu running smooth as butter. Always happy to share a crash course on DIY!

I’ve had the P305F code on my '12 Malibu in Ontario. Swapped the PCV valve and expanded gasket first, did the trick. Heard of catchy tricks, but old-school parts fix usually hits. Guess that’s the Chevy way, eh? Wish me luck next time!
In Denver last summer, my Chevy Malibu flashed the P305F code. I figured it out myself—bad crankshaft sensor. Replaced it, and she’s purring like a kitten again. Funny how small fixes can save ya a ton of hassle! Anyone else had this issue? Keep it kickin’.
I’ve got a '06 Malibu out in Toronto that threw the P305F error. Cleaned spark plugs & wires; felt like an engine birth! Also swapped the O2 sensor, hid a ton of trouble. Fuel cleaner did wonders, probs saved me a heap. Shared tricks help, right? All my Chevys owe me big time!
I’ve seen this annoying P305F code pop up in my Chevy Malibu a few times. Around California, resetting the traction control system usually kicks it, but I’ve also swapped fuel filter 'cause it was clogged. Random, yeah, but hit-or-miss tricks work! Just gotta keep at it till that sucker clears.
In Texas, I had this P305F code pop up on my Chevy Malibu. Checked the sensors first, 'cause they’re often the culprit, and sure enough, the coolant temp sensor was playing up. Swapping it out fixed it nice and quick. Also heard that crankcase ventilation issues can throw this code, but sensors are the usual offenders. FYI to anyone else dealing with it up this way.
