Another MAF.....

So here's a question for all of you. When nissan recognized it had a problem with the MAF sensors, didn't they update the part to fix the problem? About 25K ago, my step mom had to replace hers. 300 bucks later (even after I told her I could've fixed it cheaper) it was running good again. Well last night, it was throwing MAF codes again and it's jerking and running really hard. So...did nissan give us an outdated part or are all MAF's faulty like that? Either way, I'm fixing it this time and strangely enough the part was only 150 bucks. Hmm...sounds fishy. I thought they went for more.

Cavez,

You should have called DaveB. $90 shipped and would have saved you a few dollars.
