Blown MAF, chalk another one up...
Last night I was "aggressively accelerating" and all of a sudden my Max was huffin' and puffin', and the "check engine" light came on. I knew right away by the discriptions in previous threads, it was the MAF.
Brought my ride to Baker-Jackson in Houston. They're gonna replace it under warranty, given that they're taking my K&N out and replacing w/ OEM. He said if I use the K&N again, it won't be covered the next time.
Cool w/ me...
I hope I don't notice a difference going bk to OEM. (I know it's only a drop-in.)
Peace!

i agree that it is b/c of the k&n. My MAF blew b/c of oil coming back in from the crank case. oil is what blows alot of MAF. I have heard of a lot of people who oil there k&n to much and blow there MAF sensor so for some kind of conclusion.....k&n sucks for our cars
