With out paying the $400 at the dealer. Where can i get another MAF sensor?

At 68,000 miles this car is getting to be an expensive pain in the ***. I need a new Evap. control valve in the rear, mass air flow sensor AND brakes turned for the SECOND time.

 

I think Dave B can get them?

or some people use 2001 MAF which is less than $100 but I think it's not a direct replacement.

 

Do you know how hard it is to replace it? Is it something fairly easy that i can do?

 

Its easy....

If ya wanna save some cash:

And stop going to the dealership.

 

You can also get them fairly cheap from courtesyparts.com Its easy to replace, 10 minutes max. 4 bolts, a clamp, and disconnect the wiring harness.

 

i really really wish i knew about this (ie joined this forum) a few months ago...

 

yeah well theres about 1243656635 MAF threads you could search if you donated or google if you didn't.

 

Its even faster if you leave the tube in and just remove the two torqs screws, and pull the sensor out the top.

Just buy an 01 Maf, and swap the thermister out of the old one to the new one. $87 fix.

I though it was a direct plug and play?? I dident know you had to swap out the themister?

 

You can use it w/o the IAT, but it will throw a CEL.

See link in post #5.
