BTW, I checked my invoice from last week and it turns out that Alfred did list the error codes: DTC 1128 and DTC 1130.

Will keep you posted.

Looks like a failed AOS causing your car to run lean. Have them replace the AOS if it is visually cracked or leaking. The MAF and O2 sensors were probably fine all along and they just missed the AOS problem. $810 oops.

Legume, I'd print this out and bring it in to them so that they can address your concerns. I look forward to reading the answer.

So, I was told that the PCV breather filter was the problem. They took the whole think apart, replaced the unit, cleaned out all of the oil (about a half litre) they found in the intake manifold and the MAF sensor. They said that they got most of the oil in the manifold, but I'd have to drive it around for a while to burn off the rest. Cost for this repair was just over $400. Alfred said to drive it around for a few more days, if the problem recurs, then it's an engine issue and it'll require more investigation.

I'm hoping that this will be the last I'll hear of it. I do think that he was being honest with me on this matter, so I'm happy to not pursue this any further if my car is fine after this most recent repair.

Thanks,

I hope that is the end of it. I'll keep my fingers crossed.

I am wondering if I am having the same problem, an AOS problem causing P11128 and P1130 codes,

What was the final cost to have your vehicles repaired?
