Your MAF could be going. Bad TPS.

Thats right your mass air flow sensor is probably gone bad. They are meant to last a long time but this is not always true. Best idea is to run codes, and if nothing shows then you may have to go to the dealership. Before you do that, see if you can find someone with a maxima and switch the maf with him and see if there is any difference. If problem persist try other sensors, trottle positioning sensor, etc. If any of that dont work then dealership it is.
