hi all

I have a GS430 x reg 2001, with 100K miles, the engine warning light came on and it indicated 1 pre cat oxygen sensor had gone, then the problem came back and now I am being told that I need 2 pre and 2 post cat sensors - a garage i use and trust have said that it may be the air mass meter -

is this a common problem / scenairio ?

any known remedies?

any thoughts ?

and where is best place to buy such parts

thanks in anticipation

you can clean the MAF, check the knowledgebase for instructions.

Get on to Rock auto Parts in the US! They sold me the two O2 sensors for £98! I ordered
them online on Monday morning... they were at my door wednesday afternoon.. The stealership quoted me £108 [u][b]each[/b][/u] plus vat and told me it would be at least ten days!
Go figure!
