Default Help! CEL Owns my Car :(

ok heres the story in a nutshell....

Yesterday I drove to tamp and when I get to my girlfriends work I pulled into the parking garage and took the car out of gear.. Right as I was going to pull the key out my Check Engine Light comes on... I didint think to much of it and figured it wasnt anythign major sice the car was runnign fine...

I drove about 70 miles today and the car seems to be fine... No problems at all...

Well the CEL wasnt goign away, so I went to Auto Zone and they pulled teh codes for me... Here is what came up for them

ERROR 1: Speed Sensor Error, Auxilary Error
ERROR 2: MAF incorrect Voltage
ERROR 3: O2 SENSOR Reporting Slow (Bank 1)

What the hell is goign on??? I mean the car is running fine and nothing seems to be wrong... He aerased teh codes for me but 3 minutes later they came back...

What would cause all of these errors to come up all at once like that??? Can someone shed some light for me???

Sounds like your MAF. It may need to be replaced, but try cleaning it first.

ok, did you upgrade your air filter?

Thouse codes are normal, Ill let you in on a little secret,

If its a Volkswagen, Its going to have a CEL

If you go to get on it and it falls on its face then you need a MAF.

no acceleration issues at all... I have a K&N panel filter, but I have had it for about 6 months... The only thing is, last weekend I cleaned it out for the first time with their cleaning kit.
