P.S.: If you want to save yourself some money, you can do the O2 sensor yourself. Last edited by dwd1985; 11-08-2005 at 09:40 PM. |

I drove around for weeks on bad head gaskets spitting coolant out the exhaust.
In my XT6. Wouldn't try it in an SVX. If you're up to it you should try doing your own gaskets. Good learning experience.

btw i was informed today.. that they were wrong and its a MAF and o2 sensor... would these be hard to replace on my own.. 600 bucks?

MAF is super easy. The O2 may require some penetrating fluid to help loosen it. Neither are difficult.
