And with 130,000 I guess i am fortunate ! I get stuff from Rockauto.com and Summit racing . I find they have great price’s and everything I have needed!! At least so far!! Good luck with the up coming inspection!!
I think you have been very lucky. I did not remember the exact name of the sensor but the repair ship cleaned the MAF and then later I cleaned the MAF again as well as the butterfly under the MAF. I have had good luck finding parts on Amazon and Ebay as well as Rockauto. I found an O2 sensor for $25 on Amazon because the box was damaged! These issues have been a pain as they always seem to pop up at inspection time so I get a temp sticker and have to rush to find resolution.
Bottom line is that I love my little car so much that I sold a leased accord at a substancial loss just before covid boosted the price of used cars. Yesterday I saw a MA registered crossfire on the road in NH; we both waved. Would that happen in another car type?
