    Bought the car a year ago, 456m GTA, 1999. Everything is in good running condition. Recently when car gets to operating temperature about 90 degress C. It will go into limp mode, stuck in 2 or 3 gear then won't shift up, also very violent shake in reverse or to D. With OBDII. Scanner the code P0600, P0201 was shown. I know the 0201 is the MAF, where. Would I be able to get a pair of aftermarket replacement for a good price, my friend used them on their Mercedes and BMWs for years, I was told they are just as reliable as the factory but only for a fraction of the price. But as for the P0600 serial Communication Link, that I am totally lost, don't know where to start, only happens when the car gets warm, puts itself into limp mode, once turn off cool down for 30 mins is perfect again. The ASR light would come on because of that. For the past 2 months this would happen every time when it reaches around 90 C. Very fustrating, only when car is warmed. Otherwise is perfect, checked the transmission, nothing was wrong.......please help...

    I don't know your specific problem but at the top of this and other sections is a guide to cross references which may cover the MAF

    Did you try using 'search' for each code to see if others have posted similar ?

    My car came with the OBDII, previously it was factory installed when the car was brand new because it had factory warranty and was serviced by them, the previous owner gave me all the service records since he bought the car new from years ago.I have been driving the car daily for over a year, it drives great, just this problem recently popped up!
