I took my vehicle to Littlefield Automotive in Midland, Texas for a general service-oil/filter changes etc. when it was ready, the charge was about $750. The gentleman, who was very nice, said to me “that engine light” that’s on is a Max air flow sensor. There was no engine light on when I took it in, I told him this. He gave me an estimate to replace the sensor of about $850.
I happened to be going to Austin for a wedding so I scheduled a service there at the Jaguar dealership. There It was found that the max air flow sensor was unplugged. I was told it was the impression of the service manager that this was an intentional act and that he felt someone may be trying to defraud me.
The dealership in Austin also informed me that the vehicle is still under warranty and it should not have cost anything for the service or for the sensor. I believe a reputable automotive service person would have let me know this. He and his advertising claim to be a Jaguar “specialist” shop. If he can’t provide the service under my warranty he should let me know this.
My main concern is with feeling that he was trying to take advantage of me. There was no engine light on when I took the car to him for routine service. There was one when I picked it up. He offers an estimate to fix the “problem”. A reputable dealer’s service dept (Austin Jaguar) finds the sensor unplugged and in perfect working order.
