Repair costs / Mass air flow sensor replacement
Mass air flow sensor replacement cost: what's fair?
Typical all-in range (parts + labor)
$69–$326
Parts about $40–$150. Labor about $29–$176 (0.3–0.8 hrs at typical rates).
A mass air flow sensor replacement is usually prompted by a check-engine light or stalling. The single biggest driver of an unfair price isn't the labor — it's parts markup. Shops commonly charge well above retail for the part itself, and that's the easiest thing for you to verify and push back on.
