Just got off the phone with the mechanic and need two new oxygen sensors and a fuel filter. He said with today's ethanol levels in fuel it's very common for sensors to go bad. That may be the case, but I only have 45k miles on the truck. Should this be happening so soon? Not a big fan of spending over $600 on parts/labor for a vehicle about a year past the warranty.
I might have missed a guess, but here are the ones that I noted:
JerkinLips – March 27th, then April 7th
Brianf. – March 28th
Bobberwatcher – April….
MikeG3Boat – April 10th
SkunkedAgain – early April, then April 21st
Definitely a tough year for guesses, as it seemed to be a no-brainer early ice out. Then it got cold and snowed again.
