Had those codes and all that associated Harley Davidson idle thing as well.... and done this on my 986 at 50k (this spring). Mind you mine is an old car and see the road once a month only (if lucky!).

1. New battery
2. Coil packs
3. Sparkplugs
4. MAF (genuine, not the ebay test-failed unit)
5. ultrasonic cleaning of injectors
6. TB cleaned ultrasonic also
7. AOS
8. Mobil 1 Oil (every 2,000km!) 1,500miles?
9. All filters
10. Coolant change
11. ATF and filter change
10. New car freshener (lavender)

I liked it soooo bloody much I took off for a 700km round trip in the mountains of Zhejiang province. Non stop. No music. Alone (don't tell)

Buy "lavender". You'll see!
