Did i read in the forum somewhere about the on board computer having to be changed on some models or years ?

Where would u look next

Be sure you have the right MAF. MY 2000 there was a recall or TSB and they flashed or replaced the ECU and changed to a different MAF. Be sure the PN of the new Maf is exactly the same as the old MAF.
