Default Joking aside, I had cleaned my previous MAF two times and it made it about a month

each time. It was beyond cleaning at that point. I got a new MAF and the O2 DTC's went away, and the MAF DTC's did too. Since the new MAF was put in I also put a S-Flow intake in it. Yes I know that an oil laden filter will F' up my MAF, but it's my MAF and I want it dirty! Once this one gets bad I'm gonna drop the money on the Hitachi conversion and been done with the Bosch MAF.

Default people seem to have less issues w/ the ITG vs. K&N. i use stock paper because

i'm afraid of the air-box clips!! ;-)

hey, are you still looking for S4 brake decals? haven't found mine yet, but i didn't like the other guys attitude. if you're patient, they're yours when i find them.

that was you looking, right?

Yeah sort of lucky, the maf survived in the S4, but not in the A4.
