im starting to think it may have actually been the oil overfilling. i also changed my oil the other day and it is pretty high. the funny things is the light came on 3days after i changed it. since i reset the battery and recleaned maf its been around 120-125 miles and it hasnt came on.

That could've been it.
Keep an eye on it though.
Take care!

It's not going to hurt to try it.
But
You should also try to figure it out.
Running a tune may multiply the codes or it could jet be the one.
Try to track down the problem.
