So I've cleaned the MAF and I'll give it another go!!!!!!!
Leading evidence: 'Clean maf and i'll give it another go' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Check engine" is fairly obvious' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.

Usually with a faulty MAF (one that needs cleaning) I get a permanent CEL indicator not one that flashes at me.

Don't forget to reconnect your MAF sensor after you clean it, my dash light up like a Christmas Tree, ABS failure, PSM failure, Oil Pressure bouncing up and down!
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.

Accelerating hard in 3rd and 4th to the red line I've now three times had the Check Engine Light flash for 5 seconds at me. Is it my car telling me to slow down? Or is it a faulty MAF, coil pack etc etc
Usually with a faulty MAF (one that needs cleaning) I get a permanent CEL indicator not one that flashes at me.

hell yea slow down ! that message "check engine" is fairly obvious ! :wink:
MAF, as a faulty coil pack means the car would be very poorly....
and what ever Ade means dont get a Mk1 GT3, Mk2's are the way forward

Under hard accelerating the light flashes immediately after a misfire, not a dangerous (bang) type misfire more a stutter and it's make to normal.
Yes.....I'm running on V=Power
Yes.....I've got a Fabspeed CAI
Yes.....The filter's still clean.....just about!
So I've cleaned the MAF and I'll give it another go!!!!!!!
What's this about GT3s? I'm confused I'm after a 997 C4S cab in SY with black wheels so I can coiffure Sundeep's hair on trackdays :wink:

Errrr, guys word of advice......
Don't forget to reconnect your MAF sensor after you clean it, my dash light up like a Christmas Tree, ABS failure, PSM failure, Oil Pressure bouncing up and down!
Needed a battery disconnect to clear all the faults.
Just imagine, 4 up, Karossell, everyone...including the driver hands raised high now that would be a picture!
