Maf is unrelated to you burning oil. It is a separate problem. You could try cleaning it first.

Thanks you all I really think its the PCV thats giving me the code p0102 and the bad oil burning. i dont think its the MAF but im going to clean it anyways right now and replace th PCV and drive around .I can tell right away if it fixed it because I will get better MPG

Autozone is next door to me

The code points towards the MAF sensor, it's either the MAF itself or the wiring in the connector that are bad.

hey guys thank you for everything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You are all awesome!

Well i told you I would report back

went to autozone and i change the PCV which was dirty and had oil on it
I but some MAF cleaner and sprayed the MAF

Started up the car, it took 3 tries

After that it started up i drove it for 5 min cut it off for 5 min and drove it again and cut it off 5 min,after I started it up again my Service Engine light went away!

Fuel consumption seem to be doing better now. Runs even smoother now. im glad you all helped me.

$3 part! I dont know if it was the PCV or MAF needed cleaning but I think it was both because the PCV was looked burnt and had oil on it and the MAF was indeed dirty.

So its all good. I checked my oil right after I turned my car off and it read a half full or whatever, cleaned it off and read it again and it said the same thing. Usually 2nd time checking the dipstick it would read no oil. So im going to let the car cool down and check the oil

I think maybe the PCV had something to do with maybe blocking the oil or stopping it from reading correctly even though I drained the oil today and barely got 1 quart out, but we will see when i recheck it in 15 min. i still think the PCV problem had something to do with it burning the oil

My check oil light doesn't come on either anymore. Saved me lets of money fellas


Just to let you know the PCV is under the MAP sensor on the left side of engine if your facing it, also found out my radiator cap is bad because my upper hose was flatten. put a new cap on and it fixed the problem. The worker said it had something to do with the cap and he was right
