Hi all,

For the last 2 weeks, I have been having intermitten po101 code mass air flow sensor. I originally thought it was because the dealership didn't latch a latch in the engine filter.
I tookit in for a inspection, and they found a pine needle stuck in the mass air flow sensor. They cleaned it and said it was the second time they saw this happen.

Either there's a hole in the air filter, or someone was a bit sloppy with the filter housing lid. Could of been the loose latch, or they didn't notice the pine needle inside when buttoning it up.
