These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

12 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

It's like it fixed itself...Porsche enginering.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

My CEL will come on intermittley, usually once or twice a day and also I have intermittent hesitation in low RPM's. Could this just be plugs? I have 52,000 miles and havent changed the plugs yet. I did just clean the the MAF.

POST 2Original post

Get someone to read a code with an OBDII code reader.Autozone will apparently do this for free at their stores.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks for the info. I will go to Auto Zone now.

POST 4Original post

Sounds like a MAF issue but yes go to Autozone as stated earlier.. Someone here can tell you what the codes mean but often times the codes will read to be everything else but the MAF.

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Maurice, I used carb cleaner and was very carefull with the MAF. I am thinking its plugs. Because now for two days I have no CEL light.

POST 8Original post

Spark plugs causing a CEL, that's a first? Is this normal for Porsche? What happened at Autozone?

POST 9 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I didnt think the CEL light was caused by plugs, thats why I think it may be plugs, no CEL light for 2 days. Didnt go to Autozone, because no light anymore.

POST 10Original post

I think you can still get a code read out and it will point you in the right direction.Is it still rough idle or hesitating?

POST 11Original post

Bad plugs can cause a CEL because it causes that side of the engine to run rich. The O2 sensor tries to lean out the mixture and reaches its limit. Result is a CEL.

POST 12 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks for the info. I havent had a CEL,hesitation or rough idle for two days now...wierd. It's like it fixed itself...Porsche enginering.
