I have read it could be from the intake manifold runner control, or TSB 3-16-1. Is there any way to narrow it down? My extended warrany expired at 75,000 miles. I never had a problem with the check engine light until now.

Just replace a few gaskets and those bolts with the big plastic sleeves and the light code goes away. It is not the MAF. I tried that also and the light went out for a few hundred miles only.
