1. My air flow meter caused the same symptoms last month. Was about $400 job at the dealer.
2. Even in the summer months I've never come close to 30 mpg. The best I get is 24 mpg. Share your secret (especially at $2.30 a gallon in CT!)  ! |
If you know you're MAF is bad, it is one of the simplets DIY jobs. All it takes is a phillips head screwdriver and about 15 minutes, incuding the time it takes you to get your screwdriver from the toolbox. The problem is that electrical parts are not returnable.
Again, not that I question you, but I'd like to state again that your fuel economy is incredible. I keep every receipt. And I mean every single one. I have my fuel economy recorded on an elaborate excel spreadsheet, and over many, many years, my average is stabilized at about 21.5 mpg, with mixed highway / city driving. Like I said before, my all time record was a run to Las Vegas. I literally filled up at a gas station before the freeway onramp, and upon arriving in Las Vegas, exited the freeway and practically coasted into the first gas station. My mpg was 25.9.
