CEL came on just after purchase in Fla. Drove home to Boston area and made appointment at Porsche Dealer. They replaced Air Mass Sensor $433.38 Labor was $156.00. Now Im thinking that Im "all set". Half way home (some 15 miles)

Rick, sorry to hear the 1st thing you did after buying her was to end up at a dealer with a problem. :angry:

Anyway, it probably would have been best to have checked this board before ok'ing the MAF change. Its suspected alot of unecessary MAF changes have been diagnosed by Porsche. :soapbox:

What exactly were the CEL Pcodes? Get the Pcode numbers that were read by the dealer. The community here can help YOU diagnose the problem instead of relying solely what your dealer says is the problem. You'll definitely save yourself time & $$$$ :D

When you go back to Porsche, have them give you all of the Pcodes that are being read (and were read previously for the MAF change) & bring 'em here....
