Po101 code
Before replacing the mass air flow sensor, try replacing the air filter and cleaning the air flow sensor with low compress air or mass air flow sensor cleaner. Reset code and drive vehicle. Check for air leaks on or around any intake pipework using a good spraying of carb cleaner, if the engine surges then that's the leak. Check wiring to Maf and if the inside is dirty, again use carb cleaner liberally...NOTE: do not use Wd40... If the code comes back, it may be necessary to replaced the mass air flow sensor.

2002 e46 bmw washer fluid light on but has fluids
The sensor is probably bad. Shorted out,m replace it and the light should go off. Sometimes the lights just start coming on for no reason in older cars. I have a 2002 impala that the engine light stays on but, there's nothing wrong with the engine.

Removing the steering wheel of a BMW E46
The airbag is removed by 4 torx screws from the back side. Disconnect the battery before removing the airbag or the airbag light will stay on and you will have to pay the dealer a bunch of money to reset it. Don't reconnect the battery until the airbag is replaces and the electrical connection is in place. Once the airbag is off, there is a 22 mm nut that holds the wheel on. After you take the nut off mark the shaft and wheel with a grease pencil so you know exactly how to put it back on or you will be driving crooked later. Then the wheel just slips of with a tug.
