Must take longer than 60k miles for that to happen, since mine has been working for longer than that....

IF it's over-oiled, probably so...but I've read where some Yaris owners are removing the carbon trap from the air box [guess that'll gain lots of extra hp? ] ...with that, even under-oiling probably won't keep the MAF meter from getting contaminated, plus I've seen Yaris owners claim that since it's a filter that doesn't filter dirt as well as paper it showed up on their UOA results. No thanks. :)
