I would have thought you would only need to change the o2 sensor when/if the engine light came on.fuel filter is under the car just behind the passenger seat....I don't mean to hijack but does anyone know what a fuel filter costsCheerscam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest newl Guests Posted 06/02/08 05:31 AM Share Posted 06/02/08 05:31 AM Ball park of ~$30 or so. I think it was lower but I'd have to go out to the car to find the receipt from my last service to find out but I remember thinking that the price was reasonable considering it came from the dealer.

How much does it cost is it a job for a qualified person or is it a simple job to do yourself. reason for this is because I took my TB off and noticied there was a lot of SH*T that has passed through. So im guessing the injectors are bad!!! Car not running as good as it could :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Car not running as good as it could :(Hello bloke , first up the gunk you notice is blow bye and is perfectly normal !!Clean it out and reset your ECU - just disconnect the neg lead on the battery for about 10mins , and presto car should be good as new.. Tip some WYNNS spitfire cleaner (about $12.00) most shops in your tank every 3 months , injectors should be fine !!
