16486 Code - MAF dead? Unplug?
Can I run car without MAF long term? Does it just run rich?
Where can I source a cheap MAF- I just bot a new car and am loathe to spend more on the S4 at his point.

try cleaning the sensor with some alcohol and
see if that does anything for ya..do you have a k&n filter?? if so, ditch it. the oil from the filter kills maf sensors.
you can run with the sensor unplugged...it will run on the rich side and you will not have abs or esp.
