Check Engine light on 850

You could get a spray can and clean the MAF, just make sure NOTHING touches that little sensor which looks like a thin wire, except for the spray itself.

Be prepared to buy a new one.

The turbo wastegate is probably just a dirty solenoid OR a failing MAP sensor. I would clear that code and wait for it to come back.

A bad MAP (manifold absolute pressure) sensor will cause the turbo errors, as will a loose intercooler pipe connection.
