Intake Air Temp reading 6°F too high. Is this a problem?

Thanks. Not the best of situations but at least it won't do any harm. I've still got more power than I know what to so with and don't care if someone else's car is faster than mine.

I've looked through the '09 FSM but can't find what is considered "in spec". How many degrees off does it have to be before Nissan considers it a problem? Since the reading is fairly close, I'm assuming the resistance check described in the FSM will show good.

I think I'll call my local dealer first and see if they will re-cal under warranty. If they balk on that, I'll try swapping the MAFs (I've searched the FSM and can't see where that would cause any problems).
