yes, i'm sure it's the maf. it was diagnosed by the dealer and the cause was a k&n air filter that i threw away. what a great idea, to soak it in some alcohol. i will try this as well and see if it fixes the problem.

so i will soak in alcohol first to clean it.
then i will drive and see if it comes up again
if it does not fix it, i will take tool's advice and buy from the cheaper source.

thanks again fellas.
