I own a 2000 I30T Infiniti with 120,000 miles on it. So far the car has been a great car! The Check Engine light came on recently. I took my car to the mechanic and was told that I need (2) O2 sensors replaced. I was told that each sensor will cost approx. $150.00. To install both sensors, the cost will be approx. $500.00, including parts and labor. I mentioned to my mechanic that I saw sensors on the net for $50.00 each. He informed me that the sensors I saw do not come with the proper wires needed for installation. My mechanic is a great guy and I do trust him. I just wanted to get some elses take on the cost he quoted me on parts and labor. I am looking forward to putting another 80,000 on my car and will do whatever maintenance is needed to get there. I did have him clean out the fuel injector, and will no longer put "regular" gas in the car. Hopefully the "gunk" will not build up again.... Thank you in advance for your input.
