I agree MIKSTEW regarding MPG Autoparts, they're a real sketchy outfit . Without getting into too much detail, I decided to give one of their "clone" sensors a try a few months back . And, as it turned out, it was the wrong part . The long and short of it was, that I had to jump through hoops in order to get a refund . On the other hand, I purchased an aftermarket MAF sensor from another seller on eBay (whom, incidentally, was also an authorized Bosch dealer) for $89.00. After carefully scrutinizing it, it was virtually identical to the oem part in every way . And, so far it has worked perfectly. No CEL, and my vehicle runs great . When you think about it, a MAF sensor nothing more than a two cent piece of plastic, along with a glorified paper clip and a piece of plastic film . If an aftermarket company spends a little time on detail, there's no reason why they can't replicate the same part that Bosch produces .
