    Try removing the MAF sensor & cleaning it with MAF cleaner.
    I've experienced the same problem in the past & found that excess filter oil was coating the "innards" of the MAF.
    Be gentle, as the sensors are very delicate.

    Also, the "honeycomb" thinger (an industry term) can be gently removed with a dental pic & tossed if you would like a bit more flow.

    Ldub, thanks for the heads-up, will give that a try this weekend.
    Greetings, Earthling. We come in peace... Never mind "Paris to Dakar", the VehiCROSS looks ready for the Martian desert.

    P-0113... Intake air temp. circuit input high.

    Possibly due to unshielded air filter sucking in hot under hood air ?

    Just a guess, may be way off.

    if you buy one you need make it fit with your hands because they dont make them plug & play so im just making my own and it will be cheaper. Im making mine for a peace of heat shield that i got from my old spa. it was used to keep heat in so im going to make it work with my filter. I got peace size 1 foot so it should be fine and plus you can bend it how you want.
