Same problem with a 01 S. Followed the various remedies suggested on the blog. Clearing the CEL after each attempt. Solutions included replacing gas cap and cleaning the MAF. Then the light was back, same codes. With 89K+ miles and limited mechanical skills, it was off to the indy shop --- scan showed seized secondary air solenoid and bad combi valve. They were replaced and a cracked vacuum canister was detected. Replaced too. Total costs, just shy of $775. 3K miles later, still no CELs and the grins get better.
