Leaves in the MAF S40-V40

"You cannot get leaves or other junk at the MAF"
You can if there wasn't an air filter intalled.

Here's the story, It wasn't me, I swear!

I can remember when my niece bought this car about 5 years ago, she said the mechanic that checked it out (a reliable guy they used in the past) found that there was no air filter installed. My niece called me to ask my advice. Because the car was in excellent condition and she was getting it for next to nothing, I told her to have a new filter put in, cross her fingers and buy the car.

Little did I know 80,000 miles later it would be in my garage.
I suspect those leaves have been in there since then. After seeing it tonight, I'm surprised too. It wasn't "packed" with leaves, but there were some in there.

Come on Klaus, I know better than that! :)
