Can anyone who has had to replace their airflow sensor on 3.0L give me an idea on price? I replaced mine only 18 months ago and it looks like the "engine coolant error light" that I have on my truck may be airflow sensor related! Airflow sensor cost then was around $900.
I hate the sensitive 3.0L!! :x
When is Nissan going to do a recall and make a decent replacement item?

The air flow sensor is only around $250.00 genuine Nissan Retail, others have told me they have been quoted $1000.00 but that must be for every thing including the intake piping etc. as well.
Cheers ;)

another possibilty is see chiptorque and adapt another maf to yours from an import. they are good at this and get good hp putting 300z mafs on 200sx'es etc. I fail to see why a diesel would be different as long as the resistance range is the same

arb replaced mine. When i rang them up they said it is around the $900 mark. The shop owner had replaced 2 in his, and thats what they both cost him. When he rang back to confirm price and fitting he was just as suprised as I was when he said they are now around $250...

So dont worry, its not $900....

The sensor unit is $951.65...

The element for the sensor $245.00.

Apparently the problem I have isn't air flow sensor related... They're now looking at the wiring from coolant sensor to ECU... might have a break/short somewhere, but seems to get worse as driving goes on? It's got me stuffed!

COULD ALWAYS TRY SPRAYING A LITTLE CARBY CLEANER ON THE ELEMENT.
