Had the check engine light today, ever so slightly noticeable poor idling, poor acceleration at times (bogging when I hit accelerator) especially in first few km from home. 152,000km on Echo. I've also noticed my gas mileage has dropped over the last year or so a bit.
I too will be first pulling the MAF sensor and giving it a bit of a clean up, resetting the sensor, and post if that helps. If that doesn't work, I'll post the error code for everyone.
Can I assume that, generally, I can drive it a bit more (perhaps 50km or so) before getting this taken care of, without doing any harm?
Thanks,
David
