A symptom that the mass airflow sensor is going is that the car has idle, or rpm problems. If your is starting to get inaccurate reads from the airflow sensor, I'll will make improper adjustments to the air/fuel mixture. One way to troubleshoot this is to disconnect the airflow sensor and see if the rpm / idle improves, as this causes the computer to use a default reading because there is no communication with the sensor.
