Default Help! p0507 came after tune up from mechanic

my z is at 110,xxxx miles so i brought it to a friend of a friend who is a mechanic. he did a sidejob tuneup for 180. After he gave it back to me within 5 min my ses light came on.he told me the code was p0507 and only the dealer could fix this one by flashing my software. now the dealership wants 1-1.5hrs of labor which comes out to 150-200 for just a flash. does anyone know how to fix this without going to the dealer? i willing to pay someone on the forums rather than the stealership. id appreciate any help or comments. i live in sf bay area

he probably damaged/bumped the throttle body while cleaning...

+1 idle air relearning procedure (search for it)

You don't need a reflash

If you are totally lost go to Rob @ Z Car Garage. He actually knows these cars unlike whatever dumb f*ck mechanic you took your car to.

He might have damaged the MAF sensor if he cleaned it improperly. Also, could be an air leak throwing stuff off.
