    Just Replaced the Mass Air Flow Sensor

    Yea what fun! We had a bad storm here the other night and i went through some high water that was in the road and my car bogged down. Got out later that night and it was missing and bogging down like nuts. So the next morning took it to Auto Zone Gods and they ran a Diagnostic and it sent a code that is was my Mass Air Flow sensor. Well they tried to sale me one for 180 dollas and i was like hell no so i got one from the Junkward Gods for 50 bucks(woohoo) It took 5 minutes to change and my car has never been happier!! Dosen't miss or nuthing at all! So if anyone is having a problem similar tothis check it out......i know this sounds crazy but im just happy i done it on my own hehe!!!

        108 dollars is not a bad price for a new one. I'm guessing it was aftermarket. You were lucky finding one in junkyard. Around here, there are serisouly NO cars newer than 1995 in the junkyards.

          Same here. It's VERY frustrating.

                    Yup I did and it was profesionaly installed by the dealer.

                    Just had to check the faq. You get an extended warrenty on that part.

                    I have to say though Its way cooler that you just whent out and did it.
                    Unlike me who is a lazy bum and asks around on the forum first, while the car sputters and stuggles along.

                      yeah but you cant only get a free one if you have no intake mods done, mine failed and tried to get it fixed threw the dealer, they said it was covered, till they saw my intake.

                            You should try having them service your 1.6L DOHC Turbo engine. See what they say about that.

                              I didn't have warranty on my car to begin with, didn't buy it from a mazda dealership. So thanks but I'm happy with my way of doin things!!
