Default Ok, so I have a P1128, (bad MAF), how do you suggest asking the dealer?

Do I just have to tell them I read the code myself, it's a MAF, please replace the MAF under the 7/70 Emissions Warranty on my 2001 QC?

Suggestions? Has anyone had to do this

Default Sure, tell them. My tech/dealer knows I use a VAG-COM. Last time, I just went to the parts guy.

Since we are on a first-name basis anyway, I just bought a new MAF, he took back the old one and refunded me my new MAF cost.

At any rate, find a good service tech.
Tell him you scanned for the code, systematic of a bad MAF.
Ask them to do the same.
Ask them to replace the MAF.
See if that clears the problem.

Default They'll need to verify..>>

So don't clear the code. Also go in with a stock airbox in place, otherwise they'll have an excuse to deny you...

They'll have to diagnose, but politely mention you've already seen the error code.
