wallyduck Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 After having the car checked by lexus, they told me the mass air flow meter needed changing at a cost of $1,000.00. I looked for a used unit on the forum here and I was guided to tap recycling and found a used unit for $200.00 Installed the unit, cleared code with our scanner ( I'm a service writer at a Dodge store) the code came back on less than 8 miles again the car runs fine and performs just as it should, My techs being dodge guys are not that good with a lexus, any help would be greatly appreciated.

This will clear the memory and then it might relearn the replacement unit you installed. It's worth a try and certainly won't hurt anything.
