I had some oil/silicone contamination on my MAF ('94 S500) and have some pictures and explanation of what happens.

You can TRY to clean it . . . and maybe it will come 'clean' however the Hot Film sensors such as yours don't seem to clean up as well as the Hot Wire (LH) sensors on my car. MENU#4a Good reading anyway.

If you used "silicone" polish on the engine compartment, you will contaminate the MAF. See MENU#22 for what happens.
