'Service Engine Soon' light came on in my '00 Max....dealer said the air
flow meter needed to be replaced and noted that I had did not have an OEM
air filter installed....he suggested that this could have caused the flow
meter problem....it is true that I put a Canadian Tire air filter in just
over a month ago but does anyone think that this could have caused the flow
meter to foul up?
I seriously doubt it...
Adding to M. Balls' post... IIRC the high-flow oiled filters, like
K&N, were the "some aftermarket" types they were talking about. The
issue is that if too much oil is sprayed on it comes off in the air
stream fouling the MAF and cannot be cleaned off without damaging it.
I wonder how many Nissan service dept's use Genuine Nissan air
filters.
