Any help figureing out what this means would be great. Note: I just cleaned out the intake. Had been suffering from limp mode of death. Now I seem to have a lot of power (but as my brother pointed out, I could think it lots as I have had NONE for many months). I took this VAG reading re: bad MAF faq sheet. But I'll be darned if I really know what it means. Thoughts?

MAF specified vs. actual are off which means air isn't getting in. It could be bad sensor, clogged exhaust, bad wiring, bad plug. Most of the time it's a bad sensor. You can see the car's computer wanting more air as RPM goes up but it's not getting it. However, most of the time a bad MAF sensor causes permanent low power, not limp mode (cutting out)

Yeah, I got that. Does it have a reason for my MAF readout too?
