Removed and replaced both oxygen sensors, cleared codes, performed O2 sensor reset procedure. Road tested vehicle while monitoring live data, found O2 sensor erratic at times, re inspected for possible other cause of lean condition, see additional oil fluid leak line for further explanation on issues found.
Road tested vehicle 10 miles found valve cover to be leaking and check engine light return with code p0131 for oxygen sensor circuit low voltage sensor 1. Retesting a oxygen sensor confirming it is functioning, but fuel trims are off the charts both short-term and long-term hit and 35 positive. Found tsb's for intake manifold that need to be performed and cylinder out of round. Removed spark plugs inspected cylinder walls wth borescope, found grooves cut into cylinders but found no signs of out of round. Confirm that valve cover is leaking oil. Due to internal cylinder damage, causing excessive blow-by, causing erratic O2 sensor readings, loss of oil due to leaking valve cover gasket ( caused by excessive internal engine blow by). Recommending engine rebuild or replacement.
Unable to duplicate customers described concern at this time.
Pressure test coolant system and found a crack in the water outlet causing the leak. Also noticed the upper radiator hose and oil cooler hose is swelling due to oil leaks. Recommending to replace the water outlet. along with oil cooler hose and upper radiator hose, re pressure test after repairs and road test to confirm repair.
Remove water outlet in, found heater hose to be swelled was unable to see hose previous inspection. After installing water outlet found quick disconnect on water bleeder hose to be broken and hose itself to be swollen. Installed new bleeder hose, re pressure tested / road tested to confirm repairs.

Upon inspection found coolant to be a half a gallon low, topped off and pressure test, found coolant leaking onto top of transmission from vent tube for AC. Checked floorboard and confirmed that heater core is leaking and needs to be replaced. Windshield will need to be replaced to remove instrument panel tie bar. By passed heater core at this time in order to keep coolant from leaking, – NOTE- vehicle will not have heater option until heater core is replaced.
Removed and replaced oil filter, drained oil and refilled with 5W30 full synthetic 8 quarts and a can of moa. sticker ed vehicle for 5,000 mi and reset maintenance light. double check the oil level.
General Inspection – Priority List – Priority One: 1 – heater core/windshield. 2 – brake flush. 3 – clear codes and reevaluate. 4 – brake inspection. Priority Two: 1 – all four struts. Inspection findings – SEL- Code list – multiple body control module tire pressure monitoring and HVAC codes recommended clear all codes and reevaluate. Windshield / Glass – windshield is cracked recommend replacement. Brake Fluid – brake fluid is highly contaminated recommend to perform flush. Antifreeze/Coolant – see you work order for heater core. Air Filter – air filter is a little dirty recommend to replace. Brakes (Pads/Shoes) – brakes are getting low recommend performing brake inspection by next oil change. Shocks / Struts – all four struts by mileage only.

Verifed lean condition at higher RPM's, fuel pressure with in spec's, Found MAF readings low at operating temp, road tested and verified on exhaust restrictions, attached lab scope to verify MAF sensor has no glitches or drop outs, performed VE test and verified engine breathing restricted due too low MAF readings, also recommending performing ignition tune and perforing BG air induction service to further help volumetric efficiency.
During vehicle inspection found: Front windshield has a star near the center of the lower windshield. Engine oil was 1/4qt low prior to oil change. Recommending brake fluid flush due to very dark fluid. Heater hose and cooling hoses are recommended by time and mileage. Tires set to 40psi.
Found Bank 1 sensor 2 damaged due to front driveshaft contacting circuit, installed new O2 sensor- Previous repairs included installing reman transfer case assembly, circuits mis routed causing circuit contact at frt driveshaft. Replaced under warranty.
In combination with BG air induct service. Installed MAF sensor after services performed, cleared codes and road tested vehicle, performed VE test and verified increase of 16-18% increase of VE., verified MAF reading normal at higher RPM's.
Installed new belts.
Installed new spark plugs, gaped to spec's.
