same here, I'm in the same boat. I was told to disconnect the battery for a day and let teh computer reset itself...if not, then I need a new MAF sensor, if not then I need a new throttle, if not then, my max is gonna have to go to the river, Anyone heard of an insurance job....hmmmm
just kidding, i would never do that to my baby.

maf failures were pretty common on 2k2 and some 2k3. a few occured on 2k-2k1 but it occured on a much smaller scale. since the engine wont rev about 3k, im guessing the maf is bad. they do have a tsb if you under 36k miles, if not call dave b and replace the sensor yourself. it would take less than 5 mins.

most dealers will try to sell you the tube and the sensor which ive seen go for anywhere from 500-700. you only need the sensor which you can get from dave b for somewhere around 100 last i heard, so im sure the dealer would charge a good bit more.
