Codes from CEL

OK, I just purchased a code reader and these are the codes I read in order:
P0173
P0170
P0130
P0150
U0930
P0150
P0170
The reader is an Innova. The first shows up with "frame freeze".
The last 3 show up with "pending". Not sure how/if that factors in somehow.
The car is a 2001 E320. About 70k miles. No performance issues.
I'm going to first of all purchase a new air filter just in case. I read that a likely scenario maybe to replace the MAF. I'll try cleaning it tonight and then see if that does anything.
Any further advice or advice where I should purchase the MAF if needed?
THx.

If the maf is that far out of range it is causing

o2 sensor codes don't waste your time cleaning it just replace with new oem frrom www.autohausaz.com
don't buy from ebay don;t buy from your local auto parts store.
Slap it in and clear the codes.
Done
get the air filter at the same time free shipping and the best prices.

Just did it

Just went to Autohaus and ordered both. Thx.
So once I install the MAF do I need to erase the CEL codes with the Code Reader or do they go away by themselves?

Erase them. The MAF will calibrate itself to your engine within 1 hr or 50 miles of drive time.
