Whats up guys, its been a long time since ive been back on here. But recently i have been having issues with my car. About 2 months ago, i had a check engine light on with the skid control VSC lights going off. So i took my car into toyota, and they stated that on the error read out that its an issue with the MAF(mass air flor sensor) and that it was stating that it ran "too rich?". Anyways, so what they did was clean off the sensor, i guess there was build up. And orderd a replacement MAF for my trd CAI. So a few weeks go buy after they clean the MAF, and noticed no problems. Then toyota calls and tells me the replacement MAF has come in and that they want me to come in and get it installed. Got it installed and everything has been cherry. Till last night, i went to gas up the car with 0 miles left in tank. After filling up, i pulled off and noticed the engine light, VSC, lights were both on and flashing. I kno that some times after you fill up if you dont properly close the gas lid it goes off with a check engine light. But i checked out the gas cap and it was secure. So today im going back to toyota to get the error code off the car. Hopefully it was the gas cap, but with my luck they are going to say MAF is showing that he car is running rich, which i find really funny.

Anyone else have this issue?

I had a similar one, I had buy a cheap CAI on Egay! and when I install it came the same problem, the VSC light and the check engine appears, one week later I decide to put the factory system and the lights turned off so I think is the huge amount of air that the CAI let in, so flip it up, put the CAI again and the lights appears so decide to live with them flashing always.

P.S. My english is so bad!!!
