Can you tell me the code. To me it sounds like a cat converter. These always plug up on this vehicle.

Thanks guys for the wonderful input. They finally fixed the issue, it was the air flow sensor, map sensor, and the? Tms sensor? I'm not quite sure that's the correct initials but it on the invoice, but the check engine light is not on anymore.

In all my years as a tech, I have never seen a MAF MAP and TPS go bad at the same time. You might want to check out some other repair shops for any future repairs.?
