| Apr 201234200 mi | This is the second time the air-fuel sensor has died. An OEM replacement was used last time and lasted only 1 year. There is a design-flaw in the exhaust manifold. Must be replaced to avoid repeated repairs, but that would cost $1800 :-( UPDATE: May 2017 - 5 years later: No new failures of this part. Perhaps the second replacement done in 2012 will be the last one. Did they fix the sensor design ? (I still haven't replaced the exhaust manifold which was the original Toyota recommendation) | ||
| Jul 201235000 miUS $15 | Gas smell in garage on very hot days. Replaced gas cap and seems to have gone away. Finally got around to replacing A/F sensor (for second time - see earlier entries). Replaced it myself with help of a friend (with OEM part like before). We'll see how long it lasts on this second sensor. (First one lasted only 14 months) UPDATE: May 2017 - 5 years later: No new failures of this part. Perhaps the second replacement done in 2012 will be the last one. Did they fix the sensor design ? (I still haven't replaced the exhaust manifold which was the original Toyota recommendation) | ||
