I got the P0102 code. several people suggested cleaningi the MAF.

After spending about $50 on cleaner and the torx bolt - i cleaned it. code came right after i drove it for 5 min.

i may try to clear it again..but i don't think the MAF was the problem. when i looked at it, the thing looked shiny / clean.

any other suggestions before I take it to the mechanic?

i thought great... something else that is going to cost me $500+ to fix...

that old saying the cheapest porsche you buy is hte most expensive one to fix - so true. i've had the car 18 months, it had 74k on it, it now has only 78 k..so I put a whopping 4k miles on it and I've spend $3000 in maint and reapirs.
