    I haven't touched anything. Just got the car back from FoW 6 weeks ago: Oil change, leak-down test, steering rack replacement. Worked great for 5 weeks then the light came on. I cleared the codes with the OBD II reader and they haven't returned over the last short drive.

    Maybe just a one time thing. Weather changes here have been extreme, 30 degrees one day then 70 the next, don't know if that could cause issues with these sofisticated sensors.

    Hi check the co at idle this will be a start,now hold it at a steady rpm-did it alter,is the sensor switching ,blip the throttle what happens to the co,hc,o2,readings,pb racer you would not beleive how many maf sensors we have to replace on niche cars now,so as for the maf you will have to get the voltages scoped and checked against good data,before you bin it dont always take a code read as truth,and test the component on the bench,mind you this method can also trip someone up,
