Thanks. That's what I'm going to do. Since the seller has a 1 year warranty and I do need a new MAF I'll definitely try a replacement from this guy. Probably was a bad unit and my bad luck!

Question though. Do you have to reset the ODB (battery disconnect etc) so that it learns the ways of the new MAF? The reason I'm asking is i tried to put the old MAF back and man was it creaking and groaning and fluttering.
