Default Going to get new MAF under warranty. Should have just bought new MAF.....

and installed it myself. Made an appointment for an alignment at my dealer because no local garage could do anything with wheels over 16.5 inches. I live 100 miles from my nearest dealer. I called them last Thursday and told them my MAF was bad and would like to have it replaced under warranty at the same time. Tuesday went for the alignment and new MAF. They did an excelant job on the alignment -1.6 camber, 1/32 inch toe rear, 1/16 toe front for
$80. Then they charged me $230 for dianostic on the MAF and didn't have one in stock. So I have to return 100 miles Saterday for my no charge MAF.

Default If they're covering the MAF under warranty, the diagnostic time should also be covered.

I'd complain like mad about that one.
