I will now open the tech shop.
Any more suggestions, before I give him the cure?
Yeah, because -16 F happens ALL the time, and Altitude has soooooooooooo much to do with anything.

Okay - interesting perspective on altitude.
How are you doing with this problem?

I know what is wrong with your car.
And it stems from YEARS of 944 experience.

Is this like the Volvo problem where the intercooler fills with condensation and freezes, blocking airflow into the engine?

I don't see how answering after everyone else, and bringing in some random **** that doesn't even make sense, is help. so enlighten us. How is it that altitude, cold weather 3 days a year, and short drives will cause an AFM to **** the bed?

Edit: I know it's the AFM because I cleaned it and lubricated it, and it's working a hell of a lot better than it has been for a while now. so any other BS you spit will be wrong.
